1996 Beneteau Oceanis 440.
She is a fantastic monohull sloop sailboat.
Never in charter service.
And ready for long trips away from everything.
Triple fuel tanks, triple water tanks, two generators (one diesel 5.5kw, one gasoline 3.5kw), solar and wind generators, 4.0kw inverter.
Full dodger, full bimini, the wrap-around screen, upgraded engine 75hp.
ICW mast air draft of 63’ (two head sails, one main and one spinnaker) and shoal draft keel 5’9”.
Bottom was done in October 2022 in Annapolis, Md and the prop was cleaned, balanced, and coated with speed prop.
The sides were cleaned and polished.
Inside full galley, two heads, three berths (all queen-size beds).
The boat is currently in Key West.
The interior is cherry.
Instruments are current.
Garmin and Raymarine, except the radar. (it is not complete yet) but, has an AIS transponder.

We just got back from two months in the Bahamas and she is ready to go again.
Beneteau Oceanis 440 Key West Florida
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.
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
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.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
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.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
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.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
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.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
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.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Same hull as BENETEAU FIRST 45f5.
Other versions sold as as MOORINGS 444/445, STARDUST 443/444 .
