A legend is reborn! The First 30 marks the return of an icon, celebrating Beneteau’s 140th anniversary with the introduction of a groundbreaking new category—the planing cruiser. In an era where sailing is less about racing and more about connecting with nature and enjoying time with loved ones, the planing cruiser redefines small-boat sailing. It blends outstanding performance, ease of use, and the comfort of a fully equipped cruiser. 

Designed by Beneteau and Seascape, the First 30 is quick to plane and easy to handle, whether shorthanded or with family. It's smart rigging, uncluttered cockpit, and dual layout options cater to both day sailors and racers alike. Offering fun, safety, and versatility, it provides an exhilarating experience for seasoned sailors while attracting new enthusiasts with its low base price.

Not only honouring the iconic First range but also setting a new standard for modern cruising. With the First 30, Beneteau brings the thrill of sailing back to the forefront, creating a boat that fits perfectly into today’s lifestyle.
