Sailing yacht First 30 New!

To order

The new BENETEAU First 30 is a celebration of speed, comfort, and innovation, making it a perfect fit for the new generation of sailors. It offers the sensation of planing, easy handling, safety, and cruising comfort—a unique combination of qualities that worthily represents the modern successor to the legendary First 30 from 1977.

Welcome to a groundbreaking new category of sailboats: the planing cruisers! Few sensations can match the moment when a sailboat begins to plane—an exhilarating “lift-off” as the boat breaks free from the constraints of displacement speed. Until now, this experience required advanced sailing skills. However, with the all-new BENETEAU First 30, the joy of planing becomes effortless and accessible to everyone, whether you’re an experienced racer or a newcomer to sailing.

The deck and spacious cockpit are designed with two goals in mind: to minimize clutter to create a spacious and comfortable chill-out area, while ensuring exceptional sailing ergonomics. There are two cockpit layouts available: one for day sailors and cruisers, and another for racers. In the cruising layout, the mainsail bridle and German sheet system keep the cockpit floor completely clean while allowing easy control of the mainsail through large winches.

The racing layout includes a mainsail traveler with a direct and precise mainsheet system, creating a familiar workspace for racing sailors.
