Timoa III is a 2008 Beneteau First 50 S Version — a highly capable performance cruiser designed by Philippe Briand and built to a specification that emphasises both speed and comfort. Originally a Southampton Boat Show vessel, she has been in the hands of one careful owner since new and is offered for sale in very good overall condition following a consistent programme of maintenance and sensible upgrades.
The First 50 is widely regarded as one of the finest cruiser-racers of her era, combining a sleek hull form with generous interior volume and a practical deck layout. Timoa III benefits from rod standing rigging replaced in 2020, a Raymarine Axiom chartplotter fitted in 2023, and fresh antifouling and engine service completed in March 2025. With a retractable bow thruster, generator, and twin air conditioning units, she is well equipped for comfortable Mediterranean cruising.

BROKER'S REMARKS
Timoa III is one of those well-found yachts that rewards careful inspection. She has clearly been owned by someone who values proper maintenance and has invested consistently in keeping her in first-class order. The evidence is in the details: rod rigging replaced in 2020, a modern navigation suite, and recent engine and other works all point to an owner who takes upkeep seriously.
The First 50 layout works well for a couple or a small group. The three-cabin arrangement with twin heads offers good privacy, while the cockpit is both sociable and functional — a proper sailing space rather than a sun lounge with an afterthought helm. Below, the light oak interior and cream upholstery create a welcoming environment with generous headroom throughout.
For the prospective buyer who wants a capable and proven performance cruiser with no significant work outstanding, Timoa III merits an early inspection. She has been lightly cruised, never raced, and is ready for extended Mediterranean passages or relaxed island hopping in the Ionian.

HISTORY
Timoa III was built by Beneteau in France in 2007 and launched in 2008 as a Southampton Boat Show vessel. She has been under sole ownership since new. Initially based in Marmaris where she was professionally maintained, she was later relocated to the Greek,Ionian area. She has been lightly cruised, never raced, and has not been used for ocean crossings. In recent years, cruising has been limited to local passages in Greek waters.
Major works carried out under the current ownership include rod standing and running rigging replacement in 2020, a Raymarine Axiom chartplotter installation in 2023, radar upgrade in 2020, wind instrument upgrade in 2025, skin fittings replacement in 2023, and comprehensive domestic battery replacement between 2020 and 2024. The engine was fully serviced in March 2025 alongside antifouling and anode renewal. A maintenance summary from Ionian Boat Assistance is available on request.
