2006 Beneteau Oceanis 343 Clipper

$29,000 USD

Seller's Description

JUST REDUCED to US$ 29,000 for a quick sale!!!

Im selling my recently refitted sailboat sadly much sooner than originally planned. Unfortunately I realized that living on a sailboat is not quite the right fit for my dog and I.

Tax paid in BVI! Great if you decide to keep it there.

Currently we are in Deshaies on beautiful Guadeloupe :)

The boat is the perfect Caribbean cruiser. Sturdy enough for longer passages but easy to handle also by just one person and very comfortable at anchor. Its the 2 cabin layout with a v-berth, one large aft cabin and a large bathroom w/ a shower.

Overall the boat, the engine, the sails and everything else is in good condition and its ready to sail.

Specs: - length: 10.82 m / 36 ft - beam: 3.48 m / 11.6 ft - weight : 6100 Kg / 13420 lbs - keel: 1. 90 m / 6.3 ft - engine: Yanmar 29 hp

At the beginning of 2024 a lot of things were added/replaced: - new AGM house batteries 2 x 210 Ah - new flexible solar panels 2 x 200 Watt - 2 x new Victron solar charge controllers - new Victron battery monitor - new Raymarine autopilot - new Raymarine depth gauge - new alternator and new belts for the engine - refurbished Lewmar electric windlass, plus 60 m / 200 ft. of 10 mm chain was added to the 35 lbs Delta anchor - comes with a dinghy 2.50 m / 8 ft, Johnson 8 hp outboard

The last owner in 2020 had the standing rigging and most of the running rigging replaced. The sails also have been in use since 2020. Since the boat is in the Caribbean each year it was out of the water from June until November.

Note that the relatively low price for this model and age reflects that there are some cosmetic imperfections on the interior woodwork and some bends in the pulpit, pushpit and toerail.

Also I want to mention that VAT on the boat was paid in the BVI. So if you want to sail there and keep her there you would have no problem.

Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions you have. I really want her to go to the right person or couple who will enjoy exploring for many years to come.

Equipment: - Yanmar engine 29 hp - standing and running rigging 2020 - full battened mainsail 2017 - roller furler Genoa 2017 - lazybag - Lewmar electric windlass - 35 lbs delta anchor, 200 ft of 10mm chain - new Raymarine autopilot - new Raymarine depth gauge - 2 new flexible solar panels 200 watt each - 2 new Victron solar charge controllers - 2 new house batteries 210Ah each - new Victron battery monitor - dinghy 8 ft - Johnson 8 hp outboard

Calculations

Hull Speed
9.2 kn
Classic: 7.79 kn

Hull Speed

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Formula

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

9.23 knots
Classic formula: 7.79 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
15.5
<16: under powered

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

Formula

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3

  • SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D: Displacement in pounds.
15.45
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
?

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Formula

Ballast / Displacement * 100

?
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
200.9
200-275: moderate

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

Formula

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
200.9
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
30.8
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Formula

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
30.76
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
1.8
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

Formula

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
1.75
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
