Beneteau 393 - Santa Maria

Designed by renowned naval architects Berret/Racoupeau, the new Beneteau 40' is offered as a more spacious and efficient blue-water cruiser, and will surely become one of the most popular 3 cabin, 2 head charter boats in the Caribbean.

Boasting some of the best accommodations and standards to be found amongst boats of its size, the 393 will please the most scrupulous of sailors. Some of the well thought-out details of this exquisite sloop include a spacious cockpit and raised deck over the salon, which incorporates extra large panoramic overhead deck lights offering incredible light below. The efficient deck layout makes her very easy to handle while underway. She features well-balanced and responsive steering under sail, and her handling under power is first rate. The console includes the instrument displays, compass, a well-positioned stainless handrail and cup holders.

Perfect for extended cruising, the unique main salon incorporates an array of custom cherry-trimmed cabinets and drawer storage. The forward facing chart table has ample room for electronics and a comfortable seat for the serious navigator. The forepeak is set up as a private head and shower for the forward cabin, which has a well-conceived pullman style berth. The two identical aft cabins have ample hanging and shelf space. In addition to the three double cabins, the salon table converts to allow even more sleeping accommodation for a larger group.

As Beneteau lovers have come to expect, the galley is well-equipped and well designed, and includes a laminated work surface, stainless steel guardrail, 5.6 cubic feet GRP icebox with 12v electric fridge and freezer, 2 stainless steel sinks a pressurized hot and cold water mixer tap and a 2 burner LPG stove and oven.
