2003 Beneteau First 47.7

FIRST 47.7 (BENETEAU) has retained its value as a result of superior building, a solid reputation, and a devoted owner base.  "The Bruce Farr yacht design created without regard to handicap rules, so the hull lines are both powerful and slippery. It has a fine entry, a comfortably wide transom. The cockpit is wide (too wide to brace your feet on the opposite seat) and well arranged for either cruising or racing with a pair of Lewmars sunk into each coaming (a 60 electric primary and 52 aft, also electric coach top for main halyard and outhaul), which should easily handle even the largest headsail. The rest of the deck is highlighted by excellent non-slip surfaces wherever you might step (including on the side of the cabin, for use when heeled) and built-in Dorade vents in blister mounts with protective guards. The deck is encircled by double lifelines with gates on each side and aft and a varnished mahogany toe rail." -Media Ship Review

Blue Moon is a one-owner, dark-hulled, 3 cabin version of this splendid pride of the First line. She is very clean. The teak deck is solid, tight and reminiscent of a more traditional vessel.   All lines lead aft to the cockpit, The dodger and other canvas can provide an out-of-the-weather helm with great visibility. With the tall rig and shoal keel, she has all the performance this performance-oriented model has to offer.
