Beneteau First 30

The new BENETEAU First 30 is a celebration of performance, comfort, and innovation—crafted for the next generation of sailors. She delivers the exhilaration of planing, the ease of handling, and the comfort of cruising in one remarkable package, proudly honoring the spirit of the legendary 1977 First 30.

Welcome to a new era: the planing cruiser.

Her sleek lines and balanced proportions reflect a modern performance pedigree. Designed for versatility, the First 30 is equally at home slicing through a racecourse or gliding toward a quiet anchorage. A wide, ergonomic cockpit and clean deck layout combine style with function, making every moment aboard intuitive and exhilarating.

Two cockpit configurations suit every sailor’s style. The cruising layout features a mainsail bridle and German sheet system, keeping the cockpit floor completely clear for relaxation while still offering easy sail control. The racing layout adds a mainsail traveller and direct, fine-tuning mainsheet system for precise trimming and ultimate performance.

From refined ergonomics to thoughtful deck design, every detail supports an unforgettable experience on the BENETEAU First 30.
