First 53
Beneteau is synonymous with innovation and excellence in the nautical world. With over a century of history, the French brand has set the course for recreational and sports sailing, and its First range represents the pinnacle of its engineering. The Beneteau First 53, available in new condition and scheduled for delivery in 2026 in Dénia, Alicante, is a standout in the performance cruiser category, a type of sailboat that merges the thrill of sporting performance with the sophistication of life on board.
With a length of 15.98 meters, a generous beam of 5 meters, and a draft of 3.02 meters thanks to its long keel cast iron, this sailboat is designed for those seeking speed, stability, and safety both in races and on long passages. The propulsion is provided by a reliable Yanmar 4JH110 CR diesel engine with 110 HP, complemented by retractable bow and stern thrusters, which facilitate maneuvers in port and ensure precise control at all times.
The Beneteau First 53 presented here stands out for its configuration of three cabins and three bathrooms, all featuring Alpi Teak interior finishes and high-end details under the Luxe finish label. The atmosphere of the salon is enhanced by the Lounge Mega Rabbit 160 upholstery, and every detail has been carefully considered to ensure maximum comfort, such as the premium spring mattress in the owner's cabin and the 44,000 BTU air conditioning, ideal for long stays on board at any latitude.
The technology and electronics on board meet the highest demands. The Garmin Offshore Pack, along with the Garmin BlueChart G3 Europe mapping, provides precise and safe navigation. Maneuvering control is optimized thanks to Harken Performa electric winches, an electric genoa furler below deck, and a complete system of Harken Black Magic halyards and blocks, ready for Code 0 and spinnaker. Everything is arranged to make the sailing experience both stimulating and straightforward, allowing the crew to focus on enjoying the sea.
Life on board is equally enjoyable on this sailboat. The equipment includes a soundproof generator, inverter, additional 36-liter fridge, and an integrated library in the salon, as well as pre-wiring for TV with a lift system. Outside, the deck and walkways covered in Iro-Deck with black sealing provide a distinctive and functional touch, enhancing both the aesthetics and safety of movement on deck. The tilting bathing platform with remote control and the two teak cockpit tables are details that underscore the luxurious character of this model.
Located in Dénia, one of the most valued ports in the province of Alicante, this Beneteau First 53 represents an opportunity for discerning sailors seeking a high-performance sailboat, ready to tackle ocean passages or enjoy the Mediterranean with complete autonomy. It is the perfect choice for those who wish to combine the thrill of sports sailing with the pleasure of premium comfort on every day at sea.
