2013 Beneteau Sense 50

This 2013 Beneteau Sense 50 is offered by her first owner, an experienced solo sailor who set her up to be sailed short-handed. All control lines lead aft to the cockpit, where three electric winches are backed by one manual winch. The sail plan is simple: a furling 130% genoa and a full-batten mainsail on Harken tracks with three single-line reefs, on a Selden mast and boom. Twin helms, a bow thruster and a 75 HP Yanmar with S-drive and a Gori three-blade folding propeller with overdrive complete the setup. Cruising speed is 7 knots.

The 15 m GRP hull has a 4.9 m beam and a 2.09 m draft. Three guest cabins sleep six in two doubles and a bunk cabin, with two heads with electric toilets and showers. One of two cockpit compartments was designed as a crew cabin and now serves as storage. A three-step companionway and large windows around the galley connect the interior with the cockpit, which seats eight for dinner.

For life aboard there is an Onan 11 kVA generator, an AquaPrime 100 l/h watermaker, heating and 2x140 W solar panels with Victron management. Tankage is 415 l fuel and 570 l water. Electronics include Raymarine/Raytheon chartplotters, a P70 autopilot and AIS 650.
