1983 Beneteau First 456

The First 456 designed by German Frers is certainly one of the best yachr built by Benetteau and was destined to compete with the similar model designed by German Frers himself for the Nautor Swan with which it shares many quality construction details and style characteristics. The First 456 is an incredibly attractive masthead sloop with fantastic lines and a powerful rig. Still competitive in racing, it is also extremely easy and comfortable to cruise. It has excellent course stability, rises beautifully up wind, tack without any difficulty even in very light winds and, this boat in particular, has all the maneuvers take back to the cockpit , so that it is easy to sail in one or two crew members. This model has four double cabins (two double and two with single beds) and, if desired, two high berths in the saloon that we have transformed into bookcases but which can easily be restored. Three bathrooms complete with shower. An external shower, a stern platform with ladder-gangway in teak and stainless steel and cockpit table.
