This 2024 Beneteau Oceanis 51.1 is currently for sale in Fiji, priced at NZD $895,000. She measures 15.94m overall, with a 4.8m beam and 2.36m draft, and carries the stability and easy performance Beneteau yachts are known for. Built by Beneteau Yachts, the Oceanis 51.1 pairs Finot-Conq naval architecture with an interior laid out for long passages or comfortable liveaboard cruising.
The three-cabin layout works well for owners, guests or charter clients, with wide living spaces, good natural light and a deck plan suited to relaxed sailing as much as serious offshore work. Being virtually new, she's in excellent condition and spared the wear and refit bills that come with older boats. Based in Fiji, she sits right at the edge of some of the best cruising grounds in the South Pacific, well placed for island-hopping or charter work.
On deck, a self-tacking jib, electric winches and a well-protected cockpit make her easy to handle for a couple or small crew, without giving up any serious cruising ability. For anyone after a near-new, large Beneteau ready to sail straight away, this one is worth a look.
