Beneteau First 32s5 now available in online auction. Everyone can bid until August 24, 2026. Beneteau First 32S5 sporty sailing yacht This Beneteau First 32S5 from 1992 is a characterful performance cruiser that combines sporty sailing characteristics with comfort for longer voyages. Designed by Jean Berret, with an interior concept by Philippe Starck, this combination makes her instantly recognizable: a fast hull with round bilge lines, paired with a strikingly timeless and quirky interior. With a length of 9.90 meters, a beam of 3.30 meters, and a draft of 1.70 meters, she feels at home on inland waters, lakes, and at sea. This is a sailing yacht that invites weekend getaways, vacations on board, and sporty sailing while remaining practical for relaxed cruising. What makes this First 32S5 so special? Her greatest distinction lies in the design and the onboard experience. The Beneteau First 32S5 is known as an iconic nineties performance cruiser, and this model clearly demonstrates why. She features wheel steering in the cockpit, a single rudder, and a sail plan with mainsail and jib, complemented by a genoa reefing system for comfortable reefing and rolling. The result is a sailboat that can move quickly but remains accessible for crew who prefer relaxed sailing. For those searching for a Beneteau First 32S5 for sale, sporty sailing yacht Beneteau or performance cruiser 32 feet, this model frequently ranks high on the list due to her mix of speed, appearance, and usability. How is comfort arranged on board? Inside, the boat offers a surprisingly spacious feel, partly due to the smart layout and standing height of approximately 1.85 meters. She has four fixed berths and two additional sleeping places, making overnight stays with family or friends very feasible. The saloon is comfortable to stay in while the galley is equipped with a stove, oven, and refrigerator. Hot water is also available, making life on board much more pleasant after a day of sailing. The wet cell is enclosed and equipped with a shower and manual toilet. The water tank has a capacity of approximately 150 liters, suitable for vacations and longer weekends. Heating is provided in the form of a heater, making her interesting for early and late season sailing. What about the engine and technology? She is equipped with a Volvo Penta MD2020 inboard diesel engine of 28 hp from 1998, featuring electric start and three cylinders. The specified consumption is around 2 liters per hour, and the diesel tank has a capacity of approximately 65 liters. Onboard instruments include tachometer, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge, and fuel tank gauge. Engine maintenance has been performed by Delta Marina in Kortgene, with maintenance invoices from 2023 and 2025 available for review. For power supply there are shore power connections, an alternator, and battery charger along with two batteries on board. What navigation equipment is present? For navigation and course holding she is equipped with Raymarine ST50 instruments combined with a Raymarine ST60 autopilot. Additionally, radar and a Raymarine chart plotter are included; however, it should be noted that the charts are not up to date. Furthermore, the boat has GPS, VHF radio, compass, depth sounder, log speedometer, and wind meter. This makes her suitable for both inland waters as well as coastal waters for skippers who prefer to sail with a complete set of basic instruments. What is known about maintenance and points of attention? The boat was last taken out of the water in 2026 when antifouling was applied that same year. There are two specific points noted that a buyer may wish to consider: the lazy bag and bimini need replacement; additionally there is play in the gooseneck fitting between boom and mast. These are typical issues that can occur in a sailing yacht of this age and are particularly relevant for those who wish to use her intensively and sportily. How is she equipped externally for comfortable sailing? In the cockpit and on deck practical use has been considered. She features among other things a bimini top, cockpit table, pushpit and stern seats, lifelines, swim platform with ladder. Fenders and lines are also present along with an anchor chain setup. The cockpit is self-draining and there is a life buoy onboard. With her air draft of approximately 14.70 meters she remains interesting for many cruising areas where bridge heights are relevant. This Beneteau First 32S5 thus represents an attractive choice for anyone seeking a Beneteau sailing yacht capable of both cruising as well as more sporty sailing experiences while offering an unforgettable interior design. She awaits her new owner at Boatauction who will appreciate her character and potential.
