Overview
About this vessel
A rare opportunity to own a classic bluewater cruising yacht designed by renowned Finnish naval architect Timo Valteanen, also known for his work on the legendary Nauticat range. Built in 1988, Benbow is hull number 4 of the respected Seafinn 37 series, a capable and beautifully balanced offshore cruiser with timeless lines, reassuring handling, and the solid feel of a yacht built for serious sailing.
Her long fin keel and balanced hull shape provide excellent sea manners and confidence in challenging conditions, while the warm timber interior creates a welcoming atmosphere below deck. The generous fuel and water capacity, upgraded charging systems, solar capability, and remote-operated deck equipment make her particularly well suited to extended cruising and comfortable short-handed sailing.
With spacious accommodation, cutter rig, and a host of thoughtful upgrades, she is equally suited to family cruising, liveaboard life, or adventurous sailing further afield. This is a yacht with genuine pedigree and character—a proper cruising boat from an era when yachts were built for capability, endurance, and comfort at sea.
