After 5 years in my ownership, its time to part with my Beneateu First 3. Minnie Moo has been cruised extensively around Ireland Scotland and Wales, mostly singled handed, hence is setup for ease of handling shorthanded. With an extra 1.5 ft on the waterline due to her aftermarket boarding platform, she stands up well in terms of performance against similar sized vessels, particularly to windward, performs well under power and provides ample accommodation and storage. Headings will need to be replaced in the forward and aft cabin, hence she is priced to sell.
