Design, deck, and cockpit: designed for outdoor and indoor living The Oceanis 473 Clipper is known as a comfortable cruiser with a practical layout. The deck is teak, adding not only to the aesthetics but also to grip and comfort while moving on deck. In the cockpit, the twin steering wheels provide overview and space; a significant advantage when maneuvering in the harbor and sailing with multiple crew members. The self-draining cockpit, cockpit table, sprayhood, and bimini make it suitable for long days on the water, even in sunny or changing conditions. A swim platform with a ladder enhances enjoyment at anchor, while pulpit and pushpit rails contribute to safety and convenience. For anchoring, there is an electric windlass, and the presence of two anchors with chain provides flexibility for different seabeds and weather conditions. Davits are present, suitable for use as a holiday yacht and for longer stays at anchor. Sailing characteristics and rigging: control and sail handling variety With an aluminum mast and a sail plan including mainsail and genoa, this Beneteau sailing yacht is designed for efficient sailing in various wind angles. The genoa furling system makes reefing and adjusting the headsail simple, making the vessel appealing for couples or smaller crews. There are four sails on board, with mention of a fairly recent set of sails alongside a second set of mainsail and genoa, which is interesting for those wanting spare sails for longer trips or different conditions. The mainsail has two reefs led to the cockpit, allowing trimming and reefing from a sheltered position. Also, a lazy bag and lazy jacks are present, making stowing the mainsail orderly. Propulsion and maneuvering: powerful and practical in harbors The Volvo Penta TMD22-P inboard diesel engine (78 hp, 4 cylinders) provides a solid foundation for engine hours at sea and in harbors. With approximately 2800 running hours, it is a proven engine in practice. The stated consumption of about 4 liters per hour and a diesel tank of 230 liters provide a useful range for crossings or longer motoring stretches in light winds. The cruising speed around 13 km/h and a maximum around 17 km/h are fitting for a yacht in this class. For extra control when docking, an electric bow thruster is present, particularly advantageous in tight berths or in crosswinds. Comfort and accommodation: spacious living aboard with large tanks Inside, the Oceanis 473 Clipper offers living space befitting a 14-meter cruiser. The galley is equipped with a stove, oven, refrigerator, and freezer, making the vessel suitable for extended vacations and independent cruising. Hot water and a shower enhance comfort, while an electric toilet with a 150-liter holding tank aligns with modern usage in harbors and anchorages. The water tank capacity of approximately 900 liters is notably generous and supports longer stays without constant refilling. The fixed berths (3) and additional berth (1) make the yacht suitable for a couple with guests or a small family, emphasizing space and livability. Navigation, energy, and equipment: ready for longer voyages For those seeking a sailing yacht with extensive navigation equipment, this vessel is appealing. Onboard are AIS, radar, GPS, chartplotter, VHF radio, autopilot, wind instrument, depth sounder, and log/speedometer. This package supports both day trips and nighttime passages, as well as longer journeys at sea. The electrical system is set up for independent cruising with 12V and 220V onboard. With shore power, battery charger, alternator, inverter, voltmeter, solar panel, and wind generator, there is a broad foundation for energy supply. There are six batteries with a total capacity of approximately 650 Ah, aiding in the use of refrigeration, lighting, and onboard electronics. The presence of a dinghy with a Yamaha outboard motor completes the setup for anchorages and exploring bays. Sailing experience and usage: cruiser for seas and holidays This type of Beneteau Oceanis 473 Clipper is often chosen as a comfortable sailing yacht for seas and extended holidays, due to the combination of stability, space, and ease of operation. The round-bilge hull and size provide a smooth motion in swells, while the dual steering and cockpit layout keep the vessel accessible for a small crew. The yacht has been used at sea and for leisure sailing and holidays, aligning well with the character of a spacious cruiser that invites long voyages, island hopping, and comfortable living aboard. The most recent out-of-water maintenance and antifouling treatment were carried out in 2024, with no osmosis reported.
