Beneteau 47.7 Sailing Yacht Charter in Hamble-le-Rice

Boat Specifics Design Beneteau First 47.7 Builder Beneteau LOA 14.50 Beam 4.5 Draft 2.87 Disp. 12550 Colour blue Launched 2006-01-01 Race Crew 13 Cruising Crew 12 Berths 8 Description There are racer-cruisers, cruiser-racers, bluewater boats, performance bluewater boats and a host of other labels for yachts that fall somewhere between pure racing machine and cruising yacht. The 47.7 is a Bruce Farr design created without regard to handicap rules, so the hull lines are both powerful and slippery. It has a fine entry, a comfortably wide transom and a choice of keels depending on your sailing needs. Undersail, this is a fun boat, it's light and responsive on the helm, with good visibility over the house and from the lee side. Once settled comfortably into this groove, the 47.7 goes upwind very quickly, knocking off eight knots in a 15 knot breeze. Beneteau is so pleased with the performance of this big Farr design that it provides the full polar diagrams as part of the brochure. We have other locations in Cowes, Dartmouth, Mediterranean, and Caribbean and also offer yacht racing and RYA training courses.
