New Beneteau Oceanis 40.1 Family Cruiser

By Sandy Parks · On March 6, 2020

In the last two years, Beneteau has launched a new series in the Oceanis line that combine great sailing qualities with ever more interior volume for the comforts of home. The new 40.1, which will debut in 2020, follows the 51.1, 46.1 and 30.1 in this new take on the Oceanis theme.
The 40.1 has a new Marc Lombard hull design with a pronounced chine aft and flared sections forward. This combines to reduce wetted surface and to provide a lot of initial stability and therefore power in the hull. Aft, the beam is carried to the transom, which opens up a lot of space for the cockpit and provides for a huge folding swim and boarding platform. Also, the twin helms have been moved aft so the cockpit table can be large enough for six to dine al fresco. Read More
