2010 Beneteau 40

“ORIA” is a beautiful and rare USCG Documented Beneteau 40 that is well-equipped and in excellent condition with very low engine hours (667 hrs).

This model has the standard keel and upgraded 54hp Yanmar engine with the single large aft cabin (true queen size bed) and huge port cockpit locker for storage (great for inflatable dinghy, life raft, with plenty of room for much more gear).

She has received many recent upgrades by the current owner for extended offshore cruising.

She is certainly among the best Beneteau 40’s on the market today in terms of overall condition and outfitting. I’m sadly selling “ORIA” due to an upcoming relocation to the West Coast.

All exterior teak has been finished with CETOL.

All interior cushions and upholstery is in “like new” condition

Many items on the equipment list have been installed within the last 12 months.

“ORIA” is currently stored on the hard under shrink-wrap for the winter in Branford, CT.

Please Note: The boat yard will be replacing the coach roof skylight and starboard cabin window before the boat is launched in the early spring. Land Storage is paid up through 4/30/24.

The boat’s bottom, keel, and rudder are in excellent condition with Micron CSC Bottom Paint.

“ORIA” has never been grounded, and its structural hull grid bonding and keel attachment bolting system shows as good as new.

Other Beneteau 40’s have crossed oceans and completed circumnavigations (YouTube “Polar Seal”, “Sailing Beaver”, “Puffin”).

In early 2024, “ORIA” sailed to the Bahamas and up the East Coast cruising New England. She is set up well for long distance solo voyages, if needed.

A few owner’s items still on board are not included with the boat, such as tools, two offshore PFD’s, life raft, and misc gear.

Serious inquires only please. Not interested in low-ball offers.

Please call me with any questions. Additional photos are available along with sailing videos.
