2014 Beneteau First 20
Ipswich, Suffolk, United Kingdom
Year
2014
Length
21'0 ft / 6.4 m
Price
£22,000
This lovely Beneteau First 20 is an ideal go anywhere/do anything boat. On her own bespoke twin axle trailer and fitted with a mast lifting system, you really can just hook up and go. Whether you want to head for the lakes or for coastal sailing this is one for those keen to push the limits.
The current owner has retained the torquedo electric outboard which was required on Rutland Water so you can add your choice of engine to suit. Whilst minimal when it comes to luxuries, these could easily be added whether it be a porta potti, camping stove or other amenities.
Supplied by Fox's Yacht Sales and maintained by Fox's Marina this is a great example. Detailed instructions on how to step the mast are included as is an impressive history of maintenance completed here, at Fox's Marina.

Hull
This Beneteau First 20 is a great looking boat with her dark blue hull. She has just had a cut and polish to bring her up to her best and is looking for a new home.
Interior
Ordered with the specific intention of lake sailing on Rutland Water and reducing weight, she does not come with amenities but there is space for a porta potti and a gas stove. Accommodation is quite surprising for a 20 foot boat with two long single berths and a small double in the forepeak. She is furnished with cushions throughout and has plenty of storage.
Sails and Rigging
As a trailer sailor, the rigging is removed and inspected each time the mast is stepped. The owner has provided a detailed list of equipment to aid doing this along with instructions on how best to go about it along with an inventory of all items required to transport.
Sails are in good condition. Whilst being the originals, they have been lightly used and will give many more years of service
Trailer
On her own bespoke double axle trailer, she is the ideal boat to explore inland waters yet she is capable of coastal sailing wherever the mood takes you. The ease of transport is further enhanced by the swing keel (raised by a single winch) along with the removable twin rudders. Once in the water, she grips well due to a draft (fully lowered) of 1.8m
