"Sea Mistress"
2001 Beneteau Oceanis 461
Overview
The Beneteau 461 was introduced in 1997 and was awarded Boat of the Year in the Full-size Cruiser; Best Value category by Cruising World Magazine. Designed by the legendary Bruce Farr the 461 has a manageable cruising rig yet shares her hull form with the very successful Farr designed Beneteau First45s5 . The 461 is known to be an excellent all round performer and will out perform the Beneteau 473 which replaced the 461 in 2002. Sea Mistress has had the same owner for the last 20 years. He and his wife have double handed the vessel from NY to Florida for winter and back to NY for summer. She is fully equipped for comfortable cruising and safe offshore passage making. She has continually been maintained and updated including new electronics and Fisher Panda Generator. Sea Mistress is a true sailor's vessel not a dock Queen.

Overview
Manufacturer Description
The concept and construction of the Oceanis 461 are directly linked to the Oceanis range experience. Owing much to her predecessors, whether in terms of her dimensions, the technology used, or aesthetic and practical choices, the Oceanis 461 fits perfectly into Beneteau's cruising range. Her long hull, designed by Bruce Farr and Associates, has great potential for impressive speed while giving that quiet, powerful sensation only felt on board true offshore cruising yachts. The structure of the Oceanis 461 is based on the same principles that have made such a success of the whole range; the bonded and laminated inner molding ensure the best possible spread of rigging and keel loads throughout the hull. Her rigging is also classic and efficient. A masthead furling genoa (drum on deck) guarantees the necessary power for an easy passage. An optional furling mainsail is also offered. The deck layout reflects the spirit of comfort and efficiency that has prevailed in the Oceanis 461 from her conception: teak-capped bulwark for elegance and safety, electric windlass half recessed into the anchor well, large sunbathing area forward, uncluttered sidedecks with chainplates centered against the coachroof, and a teak deck option. The cockpit is easily accessible via a door in the transom which is also equipped with deep lockers. The wheel steering position has a full console, to which a large cockpit table with hinged flaps and icebox is joined. The Oceanis 461 is available in cherrywood accommodation layouts, arranged around the saloon. There are 7 opening deck hatches and 12 opening portholes. The galley has numerous baskets and lockers, a fridge - freezer in two compartments, and 2 large independent head compartments in the owner's version.
