The main features of the Oceanis 41.1
A large cockpit. Many of the sailors, regardless of the size of sailing yacht too familiar with the expression: “don’t try to stand in my way or I’ll step on you!” This does not apply to a Beneteau Oceanis 41.1 the maximum width of the hull starts at the midsection and is no change to the stern. The cockpit feel is not as “cockpit”, and as on the deck.
Safety first.
In the cockpit there are no sharp, unexpected corners or dangerous obstacles to movement. The space in the cockpit is open, consistent and clear. Two steering wheels mounted on aft, equipped banks for steering. The helm on the port side is the main. Such organization of the cockpit provides a clear separation between the control area of the yacht space for passengers and guests.
Running rigging wound up in the cockpit to the steering position and there is no need to move away from the wheel in order to tighten staysail or take a reef. This feature makes the operation extremely easy with a small crew on Board. Aft on the banks comfortably fit up to four people and you can enjoy the sea or a warm sunset at anchor.
Lunch for six.
For cockpit table with foldable wings will fit six people and Breakfast, lunch or dinner will not push the elbows, not enough room. At the end of the table can be equipped with a large GPS display on rotary panels and perfectly clear with seats steering with right and left side. The cockpit table is also equipped with a socket for connection of the lamp.
The case design is from Finot-Conq
The hull is clearly visible cheekbones on the right and left side. This is the main distinctive feature of the Oceanis 41.1, designed by Finot-Conq, the cheekbones are almost along the entire length of the housing. This design allowed us to make the body wider and as a result more stable and comfortable and provides the stability, speed and improved seakeeping characteristics. Not to mention the increase in the volume of the interior of a yacht: an increase in beds, more space for storage on Board. And of course, just a huge cockpit.
Kiel
Oceanis 41.1 comes with two versions of the keel – deep (2.18 m) and short (1.70 m). We believe that it is important to note the desire of the lagoon even in the version with a short keel to find the minimum compromise between the draught of the yacht and its seaworthiness.
Our Oceanis 41.1 for this test was just with a short keel (1.70 m)
