Beneteau Cyclades 43.3
Introducing "Waru 2" - Currently cruising Moreton Bay and available for viewing at Newport Waterways.
Waru 2 is a 3 owner 2005 Beneteau Cyclades 43.3. Pristinely maintained and regularly serviced through her lifetime, she has also been subject to a regular upgrade program. Her current owners are looking for a change in lifestyle so this is your chance to purchase a truly turn-key proven cruising vessel, ready for her next cruising season up north.
She is a 3 berth, 3 head version of this popular cruising marque, with a forward owners V berth and ensuite, plus a large portside rear berth, with direct access to the second head and shower. Originally delivered with 3 berths and heads, the starboard head has been removed to turn this area into a practical laundry and drying room, housing a Devanti washing machine, a drying rack, wet weather gear hangers and a Watermakers Australia 60lph watermaker. The third berth is currently used as a large storeroom, however, all bed slats and the mattress have been retained and are included in the sale, should you prefer the original three berth configuration.
Powered by an ever reliable Yanmar 54 hp (2700hrs) shaft drive diesel engine turning a new (2022) shaft and a Bruntons H5 fully feathering autoprop, she averages a miserly fuel consumption of just 2.5 lph.
Subject to a constant upgrade program, which includes the following:

2020 Custom stainless steel davits, with 830W of solar for the house bank charging
