Avazquez..
I didn't see this post before..congratulations..

THAT's IT!!! THOSE ARE THE ONES I LIKED...

That was my favorite Beneteau design, after that they never ever designed a boat that would be prettier than that...good old time beneteau..they sailed good too. There was one here with the cockpit painet in blue where yours is red..very sexy!!

I simply love the design and the round cockpit wall merge into the stern...

Beneteau never made boats like that again...when they were built to sail, not to sell...what is it?? 1991?

Beneteau First 456

Thanks........It is a 1984 Beneteau First 456....draft 8 ft....very fast and sturdy...the hull is very thick still it sails like a train....and I have to agree with you on Beneteaus.....I went to the Miami boat show and was so disapointed with th quality of the Beneteau Oceanis series...very cheap looking........

The ones from the 80's were simply better boats and also beautiful....
