THE ULTIMATE IN

COMFORT... CLASS... CAPABILITY

The Beneteau 44' Center Cockpit is arguably one of the best constructed Beneteau's ever built. Every facet of her build shouts "Well Done"! "Grand Cru" is the 3-cabin layout which is preferred by most sailors for cruising comfort.

Never chartered. She has had only two owners, both of whom kept "Grand Cru" as a member of the family. This is a boat, designed by Bruce Farr, capable of taking you cruising to any port in the world, making long passages in a safe and comfortable manner.

Please read her exceptional specifications then give us a call to get aboard. We welcome your most rigid inspection. PREPARE TO BE IMPRESSED!
