Blue hulled Beneteau First 210 called Danishblue.Built 2000I believe the PY rating is 1068Comes with a 4 wheel braked road trailer, designed specifically for the 210. The brakes need renewing as it has been mostly used as a launch trolley.. The 8hp engine and has recently been fully serviced.She is currently out of the water and is sitting on her trailer in Poole, DorsetThe sail wardrobe consists of 2 Main sail, 1 Genoas, and 2 Spinnaker.With its deep/long wind up swing keel, it sails like a much larger boat, with excellent performance both on and off the wind.She is a true 4 berth, with double berth fore peak and 2 long side berthS.On the hull, there are a few minor blemishes, and small areas of light gel coat crazing which you would expect. It is also possible to see a small area that has been repaired to a very high standard at some stage in her life. I have recently had the hull polished.The hull has been antifouled so is ready for the new seasonThe hull were tested for moisture and the readings were fine, with no signs of osmosis. Designed by Groupe Finot, the Beneteau First 210 is a small high performance yacht designed to be simple to sail, and able to take the ground or be trailed.

The words 'pocket rockets' tend to be used to describe these boats! The hull of the Beneteau First 210 is solid GRP, with sandwich construction for the deck moulding. There is foam buoyancy at bow and stern, guaranteeing unsinkability. The ballasted drop keel is raised by a manual winding winch in the cabin, and the retractable keel allows easy transport of the boat as well as drying out if required, supported level by the twin rudders. The sail plan has a non-overlapping jib to keep sheet loads down, and a large spinnaker to achieve high speeds downwind.

With almost 6 ft draught with the keel down, and twin rudders for control, upwind performance is also excellent. An ultra-modern small fast cruiser/racer - in style very much a miniaturised Open 60, the Beneteau First 210 offers very high sailing performance for her size, plus simple accommodation for up to four. The keel makes her self-righting, and foam buoyancy renders her unsinkable. The cabin of the Beneteau First 210 has four berths, with a vee-double forward, and two quarter berths aft. Amidships, either side of the drop keel mechanism structure, is a simple galley.

The accommodation is very simple, but nicely finished. A chemical toilet sits under the fore peak Vee berth.You are welcome to view prior to purchase, just call me on phone to arrange a convenient time.Payment to be by bank transfer once sale is agreed.Specification/InventoryArchitectGroupe FinotOverall length6.40 MHull length6.20 MLength W.L.6.00 MMax beam2.48 MDraft0.70/1.80DisplacementAbout 1100 kg Sails and gearFurling GenoaReefing MainsailSpinnaker Lazy-jack system fitted 2014Mast and Deck EquipmentSpinnaker Pole, Pulley Blocks, Sheets and HalliardsMast Transit/Lowering/Erecting CrutchMast Lowering/Erecting Guy support kitAdjustable main sheet travellerStanding Rigging replaced 201610kg Danforth Type Main Anchor + chainB & G Duet Speed, Log and Depth CabinCalor Gas Cooker single burnerSink with running waterChemical toilet Engine and Controls8hp outboard motor with electric start, last serviced April 2016External 11 Lt.
