Beneteau First 235 , 23.33 ft, 1987, Thalassa - TAXES CANADIENNES PAYÉES

At all speeds, the First 235 demonstrates exceptional qualities. All the sensations, liveliness, joy, subtlety, precision, and dazzling performance of an outstanding sailboat. The F235 has a double berth under the cockpit. The mattress is a suitable size for two adults. The L-shaped galley can be considered quite luxurious when compared to other boats of the same size and only a few years old. The other innovation of the F235 lies in the fusion of the bathroom and the navigation station. To sail, simply open the two bulkheads and use the saloon cover as a seat in front of the sliding chart table. The latter has no drawer, which is not a major drawback for shorter cruises, typical of a boat of this size. Overall, the F235 will seduce you with its qualities. Fast, adaptable, and easy to maneuver, it will delight serious sailors who will appreciate piloting the boat without excessive physical effort. Adding an outboard engine will not have too much impact on overall performance (compared to an inboard engine).
