Overview

About this vessel

Great example of the ever popular Beneteau Antares 7. This is the inboard diesel version with a very well maintained Nanni T4-155hp power unit installed. Handy extras include Raymarine 12" colour plotter installed in 2025, bathing platform, electric windlass, cockpit Vis a Vis seating with removable seat cushions and table. Large wheelhouse with helm and co-pilot seating. Underwater areas recoated late 2024 with 2 season antifouling. U-Shaped seating in bow converts to double. Separate heads compartment with sea toilet. Galley area with fridge. Full service history.

Vessel is powered by an economical but super reliable Nanni T4:155, 155 hp inboard diesel. The previous owner had her from new and all major work has been done including timing belt and exhaust elbow. Those familiar with these engines will know that these units provided excellent power from a relatively light build weight. This engine has been well maintained and has good service history. Most recent service was March 2026. It starts first time every time and will continue to provide many years of reliable service to come. She has done 550 at time of writing. ZF reduction gearbox driving stainless steel shaft and 4-bladed propeller.

Bank of 2x12V batteries providing engine start and domestic power. The batteries are recharged via the engine alternator or a recently replaced battery charger/shore power unit. Shore power cable along with inlet and RCD. Cabin sockets.

Bright and roomy wheelhouse with excellent headroom and visibility. Toughened glass windscreen with twin windscreen wipers. Perspex side windows with inbuilt sliding sections for ventilation. Perspex rear sliding doors. Raised helm on starboard side with adjustable pilot and co-pilot seating. Co-pilot seat tilts forward to reveal front of engine, battery charger and battery isolators. Opposite the helm is the ergonomic galley area which features a grp sink with pressurised fresh water, a 42Lt capacity, front opening fridge, a space for a Bistro style single burner hob (not included) and a three shelved storage unit with cutlery storage above. Forward of the helm is the heads compartment with Jabsco sea toilet. Here you will find the infill board to convert the bow seating area into a large double. There is good storage beneath the seating. The table can be removed and used outside. Large opening roof hatch and smaller foredeck hatch let in lots of light and ventilation.

GRP constructed motor boat with semi displacement hull profile. Mid mounted engine and hull shape allow for ease of maneuverability at both low and high speeds. Under water profile features a directional skeg from which the propeller shaft protrudes. Smart white hi-gloss gelcoat topsides with smart navy and silver hull decoration. Hull to deck join covered in a heavy duty nylon fender. Hull polished 2025. Bathing access platform at transom with built in bathing ladder. Self bailing anchor locker with electric windlass and large capacity for chain and warp. Tilting stainless steel bow fitting allows anchor to be permanently mounted and extends the anchor away from the bow to minimise damage during retrieval. Stainless steel bow rail offers protection when forward. The rails extend aft to the cockpit. Handily placed stainless steel grab rails as you leave the cockpit and on top of the wheelhouse roof. Large self bailing cockpit with three below deck storage areas. The engine housing incorporates a very handy seat with a removable seat cushion and backrest. The saloon table can be used outside and the "picnic" setting is completed by another removable moulding which can be used as a storage box as well as an additional seat with its own cushion. The gunwales are deep so you will feel secure when drifting on or in a seaway. The gunwales are topped with teak incorporating hand rails, fairleads and rod rests. Opening transom door to bathing platform.
