    Full Details

    Accomodations

    Custom built in France for the original owner - "Flagship Series" - with traditional lines. Built to the owner's specifications with a down-east flair. This is a “never-been-chartered” three cabin, three head model that includes the full bow locker option which can be utilized for crew or as in this case, for storage. Also, this boat has a custom door leading from the forward owner’s stateroom into the bow locker instead of having to access it by going down through the deck hatch. Although this option was installed by the Dealer, the all-matching exiting doors and trim make it look like it was factory-installed.

    Brokers Remarks

    The listing broker sold Dazzzlr to the current owners from the original owner over 15 years ago. We searched for and found the best Beneteau 50 on the market at the time. She was well equipped, outfitted and loved. 

    The current owners have continued the tradition with continuous upgrades and maintenance as needed. She has been a great voyager for them with many trips to the Bahamas and many enjoyable years.

    She is outfitted and ready to go.
