The flagship Beneteau 57 was conceived of as a true offshore cruiser by the renowned designer Bruce Farr and reflects a rare moment in production boatbuilding when performance, structural integrity, and long-range comfort were all given equal priority. The moderate displacement, generous sail area, and well-proportioned hull shape translate into a yacht that is both powerful and easily driven with spirited performance that doesn’t sacrifice the steady, reassuring motion demanded for passage making.


On deck, the center cockpit configuration is a defining feature, offering security offshore and excellent visibility for the helmsman from the port side helm station. The cockpit itself is deep, well-protected, and designed for both passage making and entertaining. Wide teak side decks and solid construction further reinforce her offshore credentials, while thoughtful touches such as a generous aft deck and integrated swim platform enhance life at anchor. 


Rigged as a sloop allowing for a removable inner forestay (not included) and a self-tacking Lewmar track, a staysail (not included) can be added to the sail plan allowing the configuration to be shifted to a cutter/sloop. Designed with control lines running aft to the center cockpit and three powered winches, it is well set up for easy shorthanded sailing.


This air conditioned four cabin version has one large owner cabin aft with ensuite head and separate shower, a watch cabin with separate head / shower, and two guest cabins forward with separate heads and a shared shower.
