1990 Beneteau First 35S5 – Performance, Comfort & Ready to Cruise

The Beneteau First 35S5 is a well-regarded cruiser-racer, designed by Jean Berret with an elegant interior by Philippe Starck. She boasts sleek lines, responsive handling, and comfortable accommodations. Equipped with a fin keel and bulb for stability, all lines lead aft for easy handling. A full survey in August 2023 confirmed her excellent condition, making her a "ready to go" vessel.

Powered by a low-hours Volvo Penta engine, fully serviced in 2023, she cruises efficiently at 1.2L per hour. A new 400W solar arch supports energy needs, alongside reliable lead-acid and gel batteries. Below deck, she features three double cabins, two additional berths, air conditioning (shore power), and a fully serviced Jabsco sea toilet. Her sail inventory includes a new mainsail with a matching lazy bag, a new Dyneema backstay, and well-maintained rigging.

On deck, she benefits from a new Quick DP2 1012 windlass, Lewmar winches, new cockpit teak, and a sun canopy for added comfort. Navigation and safety systems include a Raymarine chart plotter, Simrad autopilot, GPS, and an M-Tech VHF. With a solid build, upgraded inventory, and meticulous care, this Beneteau First 35S5 is an ideal choice for a fast, comfortable cruiser.
