Best Performance Yacht 2023
Beneteau First 36 awarded best European Performance Yacht of the Year 2023
Nominees: Elan E6; Beneteau First 36; Grand Soleil 40; Italia Y 12.98; Solaris 50.
Winner: Beneteau First 36.
Here’s a yacht that puts the focus firmly back into sailing. The First 36 has been kept inviting and approachable – unlike many yachts that can plane, the look is modest, not aggressive. It’s uncomplicated, unfussy and the result is a pleasure for all to sail.
“The complete universal cruiser-racer.” Pasi Nuutinen, Fin.
“The truly modern fast cruiser that dares to be different and that not enough yards dare to build.” Jochen Rieker, Germany.
“Fast but easy going, precise but not nervous, and lightweight, yet comfortable.” Marinus van Sijdenborgh de Jong, Netherlands.
