How can you enjoy life at anchor as much as sailing? With the innovative flared hull design of the Oceanis 40.1, and steps extending over a third of the bow, BENETEAU has broken new ground but made no concessions. The result is a hull that has true speed potential and is stiff under sail. Above the waterline, her deck plan and ultra-spacious interior by Nauta Design are unheard of on a boat this size. You cannot help feeling that you are aboard a 45-foot cruiser!

The Beneteau 40.1 is quite maneuverable and goes exactly where you point it, either ahead or in reverse. Our test boat had a bow thruster, which is always a nice addition for sailors who need to thread through crowded marinas or want truly simple handling alongside a fuel dock. The Beneteau 40.1 is a fine sailing, thoughtfully designed mid-size cruiser-racer from the largest sailboat builder in the world. By choosing your trim, rigging, and electronics option packages, you can create anything from a friendly family-style boat to an enthusiastic racer with this versatile platform.
