Beneteau Antares 9.80

This 2004 Beneteau Antares 9.80 presents as an outstanding example of this highly regarded pocket flybridge cruiser, clearly benefiting from attentive ownership and continuous investment.

Well specified and thoughtfully upgraded, she features Coppercoat antifouling for reduced maintenance, a comprehensive navigation electronics package, and cabin heating—ensuring comfortable, extended use throughout the seasons.

The flybridge provides a generous and sociable helm and seating area, ideal for relaxed cruising and entertaining, while the versatile cockpit is enhanced by an extending transom system. This clever arrangement allows you to switch effortlessly between a spacious entertaining area and an enlarged bathing platform.

Renowned for her capable hull and seakeeping, the Antares 9.80 is equally at home on coastal passages or longer cruises, offering a reassuring blend of performance, practicality, and comfort.

Built by Beneteau in France in 2004, she features a GRP hull, deck and superstructure in white. The teak cockpit, bathing platform and flybridge decks are complemented by teak capping rails to the cockpit. Additional stainless rails around the cockpit meet coding requirements. The vessel is fitted with a stainless radar arch, benefits from annual professional polish, and is equipped with a bow thruster and trim tabs. The hull was Coppercoated in 2023.
