Beneteau First 285

Beneteau, årg. 1991, skrogmateriale Glasfiber-armeret plast, Diesel, hjemhavn Ueckermünde (Tyskland), ue to changes in family plans (crew is getting smaller), the boat is to be sold and the upcoming overhaul of the underwater hull will no longer be carried out by us.
The price offered already includes the costs of a professional overhaul. Of course, you can still save a lot by doing it yourself.
This way, the new owner has all the options and also knows the condition of the boat.

The boat has been in indoor winter storage since October 8th. This and the insurance are paid for until the beginning of April 2026.
