Design notes
BENETEAU's historic range prioritizes speed and design for identical happiness while cruising or during a regatta. With this mix of uses that is unique to them, the First claim loud and strong their taste for efficiency on the water, even with little wind. Designed by the greatest architects, they marked the cruise-regatta universe and have become a true reference.
INTERIOR
It is the great return of molded wood, a noble material with polished finishes, on a background of lacquered bulkheads and a teak floor for the interior space of the First that does not look too extreme in its modernity. Gunwales and handrails, complete stowage make up the interior equipped with three double cabins and two toilets. The greatest innovation of this interior lies in the lounge/rest area, equipped with a sofa with a low table, separated from the kitchen space equipped with a table for dining. The complex is bright, airy and easily communicates with the outside through an easy and intuitive descent.
