The 2015 Beneteau Oceanis 45 is one of the most successful and acclaimed production mid-sized cruisers of its era. Designed by Finot-Conq with interior design by Nauta Design, it was awarded European Yacht of the Year in the Family Cruiser category.

It strikes a balance between ease of short-handed sailing, generous interior volume, and stable, predictable performance.

Overall, the 2015 Oceanis 45 is regarded as a sweet spot in Beneteau's cruising range—offering the livability and deck space of a much larger yacht without sacrificing single- or double-handed control.

Hull Design & Naval Architecture

Hard Chine Hull: The hull features a distinct hard chine running well forward from the stern. This adds significant form stability when healed, increases usable interior volume in the aft cabins, and helps keep the boat tracking flat in moderate breezes.

Wide Beam Carried Aft: At nearly 15 feet wide (14’9” / 4.50 m), the maximum beam is carried far aft, creating a massive cockpit and spacious accommodations.

Deep Draft Keel: (approx. 7’5” / 2.27 m) for improved upwind performance.

On-Deck & Cockpit Features

Mainsheet Arch: A signature design element of this generation of Oceanis yachts. Moving the mainsheet traveler off the cockpit floor and onto a fixed fiberglass arch keeps the companionway and cockpit completely clear of dangerous mainsheet lines. It also provides an ideal mounting structure for a dodger and bimini.

Electric Drop-Down Transom: The full-width transom lowers electrically to transform into a massive teak-faced swim platform flush with the water.

Twin Helm Stations: Dual steering wheels provide excellent sightlines forward along the high side and allow unobstructed passage straight down the center of the cockpit to the swim platform.

Short-Handed Sail Handling: Working lines, halyards, and reefing lines are led aft through deck organizers to clutches and winches near the helm stations, making it straightforward to sail short-handed.

Sail Plan & Rigging

9/10ths Fractional Rig: Features a deck-stepped aluminum mast with double swept spreaders.

Sail / Rig configuration: In-mast furling mainsail and furling genoa - both in very good condition.

Sail-to-Displacement Ratio: With a respectable SA/D ratio (~22.5), it moves easily in light air while remaining manageable as the wind builds.

Interior Layout & Accommodations

The interior emphasizes light, airiness, and easy movement throughout the vessel:

Gently Sloped Companionway: Because of the mainsheet arch, the companionway stairs sit at a comfortable 45-degree angle rather than a steep vertical ladder.

Layout Varieties: Available in several configurations ranging from an owner's 2-cabin/2-head plan, to a popular 3-cabin/2-head layout, up to 4-cabin charter configurations.

Saloon & Galley: Features an L-shaped (or linear) galley with a double sink, front- and top-loading refrigeration, and ample storage. Opposite the dining settee is a versatile sliding nav station desk that can be adjusted to maximize settee seating.

Natural Light: Ample hull portlights and flush deck hatches fill the saloon and cabins with natural light.
