2000 Beneteau Oceanis 461 “Eda” — Owner’s Version, World-Cruised, Extensively Renovated & Exceptionally Equipped
Eda is a 2000 model year Beneteau Oceanis 461, presented in the highly desirable Owner’s Version configuration featuring two large private cabins and extensive locker and storage space throughout.
Her original owners held the boat for 23 years and used her very lightly, storing her on the hard each winter. The current owner purchased Eda in 2023, undertook a comprehensive mechanical and systems renovation, and then sailed her around the world over the past two years, refining and upgrading the boat specifically for offshore reliability, redundancy, and liveaboard comfort.
Eda features roller furling main and jib, a robust cruising sail inventory, modern propulsion, upgraded rigging, serious ground tackle, renewable energy, climate control, and communications systems designed for global cruising.
Denison Yachting - San Francisco is pleased to assist you in the purchase of this vessel. This boat is centrally listed by Preferred Yachts.
Denison Yacht Sales offers the details of this yacht in good faith but can’t guarantee the accuracy of this information nor warrant the condition of this boat for sale. This yacht for sale is offered subject to prior sale, price change, or withdrawal from that yacht market without notice. She is offered as a convenience by this yacht broker to its clients and is not intended to convey direct representation of a specific yacht for sale.
It is rare to find a cruising boat that combines long-term original ownership, a recent full systems refit, and proven global voyaging under the current owner. Eda is not a dock queen refit — she is a boat that has been rebuilt, tested, and refined at sea.
The owner’s investment focused on core systems that matter offshore: engine and drivetrain, rigging, sails, anchoring, electrical generation, communications, safety systems, and redundancy. Many original components were retained as spares, a level of preparation that experienced sailors will immediately recognize.
This Oceanis 461 stands apart from typical market offerings and is genuinely ready to depart again.
Eda is configured in the Owner’s Version, offering excellent privacy, storage, and livability.
Significant mechanical upgrades completed in 2023–2024 include:
New (2023) Nanni 21 HP diesel engine with transmission. These engines are built on proven Kubota industrial blocks, run smoother and quieter, and emphasize simple, mechanical systems that cruisers can service almost anywhere in the world.
The owner selected the Nanni 21 to maximize fuel efficiency while still pushing the boat at 7 knots under power.
Approx. 3,977 hours on the Nanni engine (world cruising use)
New (2023) propeller shaft and propeller
New (2023) engine belts, hoses, filters, and service components
Bypassable engine radiator for cabin heating
Original Westerbeke 63 HP diesel (approx. 1,300 hrs), transmission, prop shaft, and folding propeller removed and placed in storage — sold separately, if desired
Eda has been thoughtfully upgraded for offshore and liveaboard use:
Navigation, communications, and entertainment systems include:
Raymarine chartplotter at helm
Raymarine Pathfinder RL70 radar, plus spare radar dome
Raymarine ST6000+ autopilot with spare drive motor

New (2023) 110% roller furling Neil Pryde Yankee jib

Lifelines terminate with pelican hooks at bow and stern, allowing opening and lowering when needed at a variety of docks.
Eda’s deck has been substantially upgraded for safety and functionality:
Eda is built on Beneteau’s proven Oceanis 461 platform with solid fiberglass hull construction and cored deck and superstructure. Her layout, tankage, and structural design have made this model a favorite among bluewater cruisers worldwide. Extensive post-purchase upgrades further enhance her longevity and reliability.
