"SAIL LA VIE" is a classic Jean Berret Philippe Starck-designed Beneteau First 35S5, combining strong offshore performance with comfortable cruising accommodation. The 35S5 is renowned for its solid build, balanced sailing manners, and spacious interior, making it an ideal choice for club racing, coastal cruising, or extended weekends away.
This 1990 model features a powerful fractional rig, fin keel, and responsive helm, delivering lively yet forgiving performance under sail. Below decks, the layout is practical and inviting, with generous headroom, excellent natural light, and accommodation for family or crew.
Highlights include:
o Reputable Beneteau First performance hull
o Spacious saloon with dining area
o Forward V-berth plus aft double cabin
o Functional galley with ample storage
o Enclosed head with shower
o Large cockpit ideal for racing or cruising
o Well-balanced sail plan and solid deck hardware

The Beneteau First 35S5 has a strong reputation as a capable all-rounder -- quick enough to be competitive, yet comfortable enough to cruise in.
A great opportunity to own a respected
performance cruiser at an accessible entry
point.
"Sail La Vie" is a lot of boat for the asking price, and is ready to take you to where you're going.
