Broker's Comments
The Beneteau First 210 Spirit is a well-regarded pocket cruiser/racer, offering lively sailing performance in a manageable and versatile package.
Designed by Groupe Finot, her lifting swing keel and twin rudders provide shallow water capability while retaining rewarding sailing characteristics. Equally suited to coastal cruising, club racing or family sailing and can be sailed short-handed with all lines led aft.
This 1997 example appears to have benefited from considerable recent investment. A new Crusader mainsail and furling genoa were supplied in 2023, together with a stack pack, lazy jacks and tiller cover. The additional sail inventory includes a storm jib, storm mainsail and two spinnakers. Standing and running rigging, the gooseneck and Furlex furling system are stated to have been replaced in 2021.
Auxiliary power is provided by a new 2026 Tohatsu MFS6 SailPro ultra-long-shaft outboard with alternator and manufacturer’s warranty. The navigation and electrical equipment includes a 12-volt battery, speed and depth log, compass and VHF radio.
Below decks, the accommodation is practical for a yacht of this size, with a forward V-berth and two quarter berths providing sleeping space for up to four. The interior is described as dry and spacious for her size, with blue and white striped upholstery. Her inventory also includes two anchors, eight fenders, mooring lines and a sail cover.
Further recent work is stated to include professional antifouling in 2025, servicing of the electrical system and the supply of new keel bearings. A substantial paperwork history is also available, including manuals and original build receipts. She is currently afloat and ready for the season.
In our opinion, this is a particularly appealing example of the First 210 Spirit, with several of the more costly items already renewed. She should attract buyers looking for a fun, easily handled sailing boat with shallow-draft capability and a strong recent inventory.
