Beneteau First 44.7

Beneteau: First Series: First 44.7

Based on the world renowned First 40.7 - winner of the IMS World Championship, and most recently, overall winner of the Sydney Hobart Race - Beneteau introduces the all new First 44.7. Innovations abound including the new Lewmar "Y-spoke wheel," hi-tech aluminum winches, a bigger and brighter interior, and a unique adjustable settee adjacent to the dinette. These features -- and more -- are what will place the 44.7 at the head of her class.
