39 Beneteau 2008 Boat for Sale

39' Beneteau 2008

Meticulously Maintained | Major Electrical & Systems
Upgrades | Low-Hour Yanmar (475 Hrs)

This 2008 Beneteau 40 represents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-sorted, systems-
upgraded cruising yacht without the typical list of deferred maintenance. She has been
thoughtfully cared for and modernized in recent years with a premium lithium electrical
system, upgraded sanitation, a reimagined galley, current navigation electronics, and an
upgraded salon entertainment setup—giving her the off-grid capability, comfort, and reliability
that today's cruisers demand.

The Beneteau 40 has earned a strong reputation in the cruising community for her balance of
comfortable, voluminous accommodations and responsive sailing performance. This boat is equally capable of coastal weekending, extended liveaboard cruising, or longer passages.

Power comes from her 54HP Yanmar diesel, showing just 475 hours—a testament to how
well this vessel has been maintained and how much life remains in her powerplant.

Recent maintenance records and system upgrades reflect an ownership approach focused on
proactive care rather than reactive repair.
