The 343 was one of Beneteau's most popular models when it was new and this particular boat has been well cared for since new. A real sailor's boat from the factory, "Godspeed" is equipped with the deep keel, a fully battened standard mainsail, adjustable backstay, telescoping whisker pole, 210' chain rode (with 50' rope) and includes a NEW Highfield inflatable dinghy. The 343 shows some of Beneteau's innovations with a pivoting helm station wheel for better cockpit ergonomics at anchor, and a folding helm seat that gives great access to the swim step.
Located at the Des Moines Marina, call to make an appointment to see this well-kept, clean sailboat.
The Beneteau 343 features two staterooms and a very large head with a separate shower located aft at the companionway. The main salon features a dinette table to port with an "L" Settee and a straight Settee to starboard with a sit-down-aft facing navigation station to starboard as well. The aft stateroom has a huge double berth with nice light, ventilation and a hanging locker. Plush foam mattress in the forward stateroom.
The galley is aft and to the port side with a gimballed propane stove/oven with broiler outboard, stainless steel sink, hot/cold pressure water, dry storage outboard and below the countertops, and an athwartships under counter Isotherm DC Refrigeration system with front opening door and small freezer compartment. There is also wine storage under the galley countertop aft of the stove.
Several opening ports provide light and cross ventilation and deck hatches feature Oceanair sliding screens and blinds. The cabin sole is teak/holly and the interior is finished in dark wood joinery with a beautiful finish.
This yacht is equipped with reverse cycle air conditioning and heat pump.
Easy engine access is under the removable companionway stairs, and also from the aft stateroom.
The cockpit is aft and features two large storage lockers (one port, one starboard) plus a propane locker with two large bottles aft. Walk Thru Transom with transom shower. The Pedestal steering wheel pivots for easy access through the transom and features a starboard cockpit table that stows away vertically.
