Description
This Beneteau 523 is a rare find, boasting a lustrous blue hull that turns heads in every harbor. Designed by Groupe Finot for both performance and comfort, she delivers impressive passagemaking capabilities without compromising.
Below deck, her spacious 3-cabin, 3-head layout offers exceptional privacy and comfort for owners and guests alike. Each stateroom features generous storage, en suite heads, and refined finishes. Forward in the forepeak, a dedicated crew cabin with its own head ensures flexibility for storage for extended cruising or crew.
Her expansive salon is bathed in natural light from sleek deck windows and multiple hatches, creating an airy, inviting atmosphere. The well-appointed galley is ideal for gourmet meal preparation underway or at anchor, and her thoughtful storage solutions make her a true liveaboard-friendly yacht. All the comforts you could want are here - air conditioning, heat, full enclosure canvas, custom bamboo mattresses. Many upgrades and maintenance are up to date, so you can enjoy her immediately.
On deck, the wide, uncluttered layout and twin helm stations provide excellent visibility and ease of handling, while her powerful sail plan and balanced hull shape make long passages efficient and enjoyable. Whether crossing oceans or exploring coastal waters, this Beneteau 523 delivers the perfect balance of comfort, performance, and seaworthiness.
She is in a great slip at an excellent marina in San Diego that is potentially transferrable at the discretion of the marina manager.
