Description
1999 Beneteau First 40.7 | 12m – Willemstad, Netherlands
The Beneteau First 40.7 (1999) perfectly combines performance, comfort, and style, making it one of the most successful models ever produced by Beneteau. Designed by Bruce Farr, this 40-foot cruiser-racer offers both the excitement of competitive sailing and the comfort needed for long-distance cruising or relaxed family holidays.
Built with Beneteau’s proven polyester hull construction and a fin keel, this yacht is as sturdy as it is sleek. The dark blue hull, professionally repainted in 2017, gives the yacht a timeless and sporty look. Below deck, the interior offers ample space with three double cabins, a large saloon, and a fully equipped galley — making it perfect for up to 8 people.
This example has been meticulously maintained, featuring new rigging (2017), a North Sails 3Di mainsail and genoa, electric anchor winch, and a full suite of Raymarine electronics both inside and out.
Whether you’re planning comfortable coastal cruising or looking to perform well in local regattas, this First 40.7 is an exceptional all-rounder.
