About the Beneteau First 60

The Beneteau First 60 is a boat for sailors who feel the difference a well-trimmed sail makes in their hands. As the largest First ever built, it draws its DNA from the racecourse yet carries it into genuine bluewater cruising, so a fast, engaged passage and a long, comfortable one become the same voyage. The cockpit is organised into three purpose-built zones — sailing aft, dining amidships, relaxation forward — and below deck a full-beam galley and generous, light-filled interior make it a home as much as a machine.

What sets this First apart is how it rewards attention. A captive mainsheet winch, adaptive helm ergonomics and the Park Avenue boom turn precise trim into something effortless, so fine-tuning every detail becomes a pleasure rather than a chore. Whether you are threading a headland at pace or reaching across open water under a settled sky, the boat answers with the intensity and poise the First name has always promised.

Owning a yacht of this calibre should feel as clear-headed as sailing it. Angelina sells the First 60 and runs it under professional charter management, so a dedicated team handles maintenance, marketing and bookings while you keep your own weeks on the water. For owners weighing the numbers, we prepare a per-yacht feasibility study covering charter income, running costs and VAT recovery — an honest, detailed basis for the decision, with the dream firmly intact.
