BENETEAU First 30

The new BENETEAU First 30 is a celebration of performance, comfort, and innovation—a perfect fit for the next generation of sailors. She delivers the sensation of planing, easy handling, safety and cruising comfort – a unique combination of qualities befitting the modern successor to the legendary 1977 First 30.

Few sensations compare to the moment when a sailboat begins to plane—an exhilarating “lift-off” as the boat breaks free from the chains 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 all, whether you’re an experienced racer or a newcomer to sailing.

The deck and generously sized cockpit layout were designed with two goals: minimizing clutter to create a spacious and comfortable chill-out area while ensuring outstanding sailing ergonomics. Two cockpit layouts are available: one for day sailors and cruisers and another for racers. In the cruising layout, the mainsail bridle and German sheet system enable the cockpit floor to be completely clean while allowing easy control of the mainsail through generously sized winches.

The racing layout adds a mainsail traveller with a direct and fine-tuning mainsheet system, creating a familiar workspace for racing sailors.
