The hull design, crafted by the prestigious Berret-Racoupeau duo, prioritizes both sailing performance and habitability. The spaciousness and brightness of the interior stand out from the very first moment, reinforced by numerous portholes, hatches, and large panoramic windows that enhance ventilation and natural light. The sailboat was conceived to adapt to different sailing profiles and crew sizes, allowing enjoyment from family outings to vacation charters, thanks to its optimized interior layout for six to eight people across three cabins, a spacious salon, and a fully equipped L-shaped kitchen.
The Beneteau Oceanis Clipper 343 is designed to provide a comfortable and accessible sailing experience even with a reduced crew. The stainless steel steering wheel wrapped in leather, along with the sloop rig with a mainsail with battens and a roller genoa, simplify maneuvers and ensure safety at all times. The self-tailing winch system and the helm controls located in the cockpit allow for agile and efficient steering. The swim platform, outdoor shower, and ladder facilitate access to the water, while the spacious cockpit covered in teak invites relaxation after a day at sea. The sprayhood, Bimini top, and cushions in the cockpit add comfort and protection from the elements.
Regarding technical equipment, this sailboat is powered by a 29 HP inboard Yanmar diesel engine, known for its reliability and low consumption. The 12 V and 220 V electrical panel, battery charger, and outlets in the salon, kitchen, and cabins ensure autonomy and comfort during the stay on board. The instrumentation includes GPS/Plotter, autopilot, VHF radio, depth sounder, speedometer, and anemometer, guaranteeing precise and safe navigation in any condition. The navigation lights, anchoring lights, and interior lights allow for adaptable lighting for each moment and atmosphere.
The interior of the Beneteau Oceanis Clipper 343 is an example of space utilization and quality finishes. The warm-toned wood carpentry, varnished flooring with black details, and excellent headroom (up to 1.98 m in the salon) create a pleasant and functional atmosphere. The central salon, with two long sofas and a folding table, becomes the social hub of the boat, ideal for sharing meals or resting after sailing. The L-shaped kitchen, equipped with a stainless steel sink, two-burner stove with grill, 130 L electric refrigerator, and ample storage space, facilitates life on board even during long passages. The full bathroom with shower and well-distributed cabins, featuring spacious wardrobes and shelves, emphasize attention to detail and comfort.
The deck and structure of the Beneteau Oceanis Clipper 343 are built from fiberglass with structural reinforcements at key points, ensuring robustness and durability. The non-slip surface and organization of the cockpit, with storage lockers, teak benches, and a central table, provide functionality and safety. Elements such as the electric anchor windlass, outboard motor supports, Bimini top, and lazy bag/lazyjacks for the mainsail complete a setup designed for enjoyment without complications.
The ideal buyer profile for this sailboat is broad: families looking to start cruising, experienced sailors who value ease of maneuvering and safety, as well as those seeking a versatile vessel for combining private use and charter. The location in Port d'Andratx also offers the advantage of direct access to the most emblematic routes of the Mediterranean, with the convenience of a recognized port and top-notch services.
