Accomodations

FORWARD CABIN 

Starting forward is the full-beam owner’s cabin with 5’-3” wide centerline berth- unheard of in a cruiser of this size. This is a gorgeous space with plenty of light and natural ventilation, plenty of wiggle room and plenty of storage. Settee bench seats on either side of the berth are a nice touch, as are convenient shelves with fiddles to keep phones etc. secure with charging outlets port and starboard.

  • Dual overhead hatches with built-in screens and privacy shades  
  • Air conditioning 
  • Lift-up berth with access to storage beneath 
  • Large under-berth drawer storage and dual hanging lockers 
  • Vanity on aft bulkhead with pull-out storage locker and mirror above 

 

SEPARATE SHOWER STALL 

Aft to starboard is the separate shower stall which is a HUGE space with large built-in seat, shelf with fiddle for shampoo, etc. and plenty of locker storage space outboard. There is a vent in the shower for AC/reverse cycle heat and an overhead hatch. 

 

FORWARD HEAD 

Aft to port is the head with vanity; also with AC vent, plenty of storage and overhead hatch for light and ventilation. Electric push-button quiet flush toilet with fresh/saltwater valve. 

  

WORK/COMMS/NAV DESK 

The Nav station ‘nook’ is next aft and to port, with a forward-facing seat to work at the desk that has an extension to become an L-settee which doubles as an inboard-facing lounge as well as a settee for use with the expandable salon table. This is a nifty and well executed design concept and space within the main salon, and a unique aspect of this modern generation of Oceanis 51.1’s. Features include VHF radio, stereo controls, Nav/reading light; recessed storage outboard; lift-top desk with storage beneath. 

 

GALLEY 

Next aft to port is the large U-shaped galley with counter space forward and aft and sink and stove outboard. Galley highlights include: an under-counter refrigerator with door; gimballed stainless 2-burner stove with oven, stainless sink with countertop cover and cutting board; microwave oven in overhead locker; opening port; under-counter trash bin; under-counter pot locker; foot operated pump.

SALON WITH DINING TABLE AND SETTEE 

Across the salon to starboard is the large U-shaped settee with expandable table that takes full advantage of this beamy design, with plenty of storage and shelving outboard and sizable hull ports to flood the salon with light and water views both while sailing and at anchor. Extended salon table (compatible with sleeping option in the salon). 

 

Wide companionway steps with gentle slope 

Overhead drop-down lockers outboard of table with additional storage behind and under salon settee 

 

GUEST HEAD 

Next aft to starboard is the roomy guest head with an ensuite (separate) stall shower; also with opening port for natural ventilation and vent for AC/heat. Quiet flush electric toilet. 

 

AFT CABINS 

Aft of the salon are the port and starboard quarter cabins with oversized double berths with split mattresses so that lee cloths or semi-permanent dividers may be used to create private berths or additional storage offshore. Features include hull ports, opening ports, hanging lockers, and built-in storage. These are both great cabin spaces.

Cockpit

The cockpit on the Beneteau Oceanis 51.1 is superb, with opposing L-settees flanking a large teak double leaf table with icebox, cupholders, lighting. Twin composite helms and an electric fold-down transom mean excellent access to and from the water and make getting into the cockpit a breeze. All sail handling lines are led aft to the cockpit and are intelligently laid out to make shorthanded sailing a reality from the twin helms. The oversized dodger provides ample protection from the elements, and a large center-opening section allows plenty of airflow. An innovative feature is found in the sole at each helm with a hinged lifting section that allows for a comfortable standing steering position when the boat is heeled over. Bravo!
