Beneteau Antares 9.80

An immaculately presented example of the ever popular Beneteau Antares 9.8 that has been well maintained and updated.

Powered by the sought after Volvo Penta D4 engines with low hours, she also has a bow thruster to aid close-quarter manoeuvring

Updated Navigation Suite has a Raymarine Axiom Screen with Plotter, Radar and 3D Sonar. Other extras include: Invertor, Cockpit Cover, Flybridge Bimini, Diesel Heating & Copper Coating.

It would be difficult to find a better example of these ever popular boats on the market today.

Broker's view: "This is a lot of boat for the money, she is in super condition and the spec includes: Copper Coating, Axiom Plotter, AIS, 3D Sonar and Gel Batteries. Lying in Weymouth Harbour and well worth viewing."
