Overview
About this vessel
Fresh from a 2024 refit, the 2012 Beneteau Sense 55 IMPERIA offers a combination of comfort, space and straightforward handling. Designed by Nauta Design with exterior styling by Berret Racoupeau, she was built for practical cruising with an emphasis on easy onboard living and strong indoor-outdoor flow.
Her 2024 refit included new standing rigging, fresh 12mm teak decking, upgraded electronics, a new autopilot, new running rigging, a full paint job, new bimini, and fresh copper coat. Equipped with a full suite of sails and all-electric winches, IMPERIA is easy to manage under sail. She has just completed her annual haul out which included the installation of a new sail drive unit and fresh antifoul application.
The interior layout makes excellent use of the yacht's volume, creating a bright and open living space suited to extended cruising or family use. The main salon includes central seating with additional space for two at the chart table and a 32-inch retractable TV on a motorized lift system. In the galley, the grey synthetic resin worktop, concealed appliances, and large service hatch opening to the cockpit saloon support practical day-to-day living onboard.
IMPERIA accommodates six guests in three cabins. The owner's suite features a private shower, office area, generous storage and ventilation. Two guest cabins positioned amidships feature sliding doors that create comfortable private spaces for family or guests.
With her minimal heel, balanced sailing characteristics, and comfortable cruising setup, IMPERIA is a strong option for buyers looking for a capable sailing yacht with manageable running costs and an easy-handling setup.
