Beneteau Oceanis 390
The Beneteau Oceanis 390, available at Port d'Andratx (Balearic Islands), represents one of the most recognized second-hand sailboats in the recent history of cruising. Built in 1988 by the prestigious French shipyard Beneteau and designed by naval architect Philippe Briand, this model is an emblem of balance between comfort, solidity, and sailing performance. Its pioneering design within the Oceanis range laid the foundation for what is now considered a versatile family cruiser, capable of handling both coastal trips and longer voyages.
With a length of 11.65 meters, a beam of 3.9 meters, and a draft of 1.65 meters, the Beneteau Oceanis 390 offers ideal dimensions for those seeking a spacious sailboat without sacrificing maneuverability and ease of management in port. These proportions allow for a stable and safe sailing experience, both for experienced skippers and for family crews starting on long voyages. Its monohull fiberglass (GRP) construction ensures a robust and durable build, qualities that the second-hand market particularly values in units of this era.
Habitability is one of the strong arguments for this sailboat. The interior, with a height of 2.05 meters, surprises with its sense of spaciousness and comfort. Distributed across three independent double cabins, two full bathrooms, a large central salon, a spacious kitchen, and numerous storage spaces, the Beneteau Oceanis 390 is the definition of a floating home. The chart table and kitchen area have been designed for long stays on board, facilitating both daily life in port and autonomy during extended voyages. The ergonomics and brightness of the interior spaces continue to set a standard among vessels in its segment.
Regarding equipment, this sailboat stands out for practical details that enhance the onboard experience. It features an electric windlass, a 175-liter fuel tank, and fresh water tanks with a total capacity of 640 liters, translating to ample autonomy for sailing for weeks without relying on frequent stops. The certified capacity for six people makes it a perfect option for families or groups of friends who value comfort and privacy, thanks to the separation of cabins and the presence of two bathrooms.
The helm station, located in a spacious and protected cockpit, ensures both the skipper and crew have comfortable and safe handling, with smooth circulation and optimal visibility. The 12V electrical system and rational distribution of spaces demonstrate this model's commitment to meeting the demands of modern sailing, even in boats that have already surpassed several decades since their launch.
A distinguishing feature of this unit is its history of private use and meticulous maintenance. Under Polish flag and always managed by private owners, the sailboat remains in dry marina for approximately seven months a year during the winter. This practice has been key to preserving its excellent overall condition, minimizing wear and preserving the quality of both the structure and the interiors. It is an uncommon characteristic in second-hand boats of this age and adds undeniable value for the discerning buyer.
The Beneteau Oceanis 390 is especially recommended for sailors looking for a well-established sailboat, with a seafaring personality and excellent reputation. Its versatility allows for weekend getaways as well as long-distance cruising, adapting to different owner profiles: families with children, traveling couples, or groups of friends wishing to enjoy the Mediterranean from one of the most sought-after ports in the Balearic Islands, Port d'Andratx, known for its privileged surroundings and top-notch nautical services.
In short, this second-hand Beneteau Oceanis 390 represents an opportunity to access a sailboat with history, construction quality, and equipment designed for sailing with total confidence and comfort, adding the appeal of a strategic location in the heart of the Balearic Islands.
