Broker Comments
Only commissioned and launched in the Summer of 2008, this is a very well equipped example of what was then Beneteau's flagship cruiser racer. A fast passage maker rather than a stripped-out race machine, the First 50 does offer sparkling performance but can equally well cruise short handed in comfort.
