Beneteau Antares 8

REDUCED! 2019 | BENETEAU ANTARES 8 - "NATUA"

A beautifully versatile boat, meeting performance handling, with comfort and luxury, perfect for entertaining guests for a day out on the water, setting off to cruise for a few days with the family, or offshore fishing with your mates. With its sleek lines and sporty allure, the stunning design combines style and elegance with a clean, streamlined profile that gives the boat its sporty feel.

This near new 26ft sleeps 4 comfortably, and is perfect for couples and families looking for a weekend away, or fishing mates looking to go offshore safely. She features a flared hull design that gives the Antares range its exceptional stability and seakeeping qualities. A wide walk around deck with plenty of handrails and open pulpit makes it easy and safe to move from the stern to the bow with its huge sun-pad for sunbathing. She has an extra large anchor for fishing offshore in deep water, and a bow thruster for easy maneuvering into marinas. With her powerful 200hp Mercury outboard with only 313hrs on her, you can get to where you are going fast and in style.

She offers a large, open cockpit that makes it safe for the kids to move around the boat, and offers spacious entertaining area for your guests. Everything about it is perfectly designed, right down to the sliding rear bench seat, plenty of comfortable upholstered seating around a large removable table. There is plenty of storage both in the floor of the cockpit and under the seats. On her stern she has two large flush platforms around the outboard making it easy to board the boat, and provides excellent swim decks with a ladder when taking a dip in the sea. She includes a fresh water shower on her port side.

The wheelhouse and saloon is spacious and well lit with full wrap around windows, windscreen, glass aft sliding door, and an opening deck hatch in the saloon and cabin letting in plenty of light. All furnishings are of matching upholstery and she has interior curtains and a blind on the deck hatches offering shade and privacy.

The ergonomic helm station on the starboard side boasts a whopping 6'7" head room, and an excellent view with the windscreen featuring electric windscreen wipers. The comprehensive control panel is comfortably within reach and features clear displays, a large Garmin chartplotter, radio, Fusion sound system and bow thruster controls. The pilot seat guarantees the driver a comfortable and secure driving experience, and can swivel to join the conversation and a meal at the saloon table around which features comfortable seating for 4. This table is stowable converting the bench seats into a double bed. The saloon seat has a swiveling seat back, changing from a forward facing copilot seat for navigation, to aft facing saloon seating at the table. Again there is plenty of stowage below the aft seat.

The galley comes with a sink, pressured cold water, fridge and a gas stove top, and plenty of storage space. There are power points throughout the boat.

Moving forward to the bow past the spacious enclosed heads, there is a double berth in the forward cabin with plenty of head room and storage lockers. All up she sleeps 4 comfortably down below, with an option for a fifth (an extra berth can also be set up in the space under the saloon area).

The Beneteau Antares will hold its value and is a sought-after vessel. With low hours and in near new condition, she is a bargain at this price, with the owner wanting a quick sale.
