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