The Beneteau First 30 is a true sailor’s boat — combining racing spirit with cruising comfort. Designed by renowned naval architect Juan Kouyoumdjian, this 30-foot performance cruiser carries the DNA of offshore racing while offering all the essentials for enjoyable coastal cruising.
With a powerful sail plan, deep keel, and twin rudders, the First 30 delivers precision handling and exhilarating speed, even in challenging conditions. Yet, step below deck and you’ll discover a bright, spacious interior designed for comfort at anchor or on passage. Two private cabins, a well-equipped galley, and a welcoming saloon make it equally suited for family cruising and competitive racing.
Key Highlights:
Racing Pedigree – Twin rudders, T-shaped keel, and modern hull for stability and speed.
Easy Handling – Ergonomic cockpit and efficient sail layout for shorthanded or full-crew sailing.
Spacious Interior – Two cabins, saloon, galley, and head for comfortable overnight stays.
Versatile Performer – Equally at home on the racecourse or during relaxed weekend cruising.
