Broker's Comments

The Beneteau 523 is a real long distance, blue-water cruiser.

Large and comfortable cockpit and the below deck space offers great live aboard capability.

The electric winches make the boat easy to sail short handed and davits, solar and water maker add to the ease of living on the anchor.

The present owner purchased this boat in the UK in 2005 from the main dealer however, due to advancing years, it is now time to sell.

This example also has full double crew cabin and heads.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
