She's an extensively updated cruising boat with a stem-to-stern 2025 & 2026 refit. Recently taken off the Moorings & Seabbatical charter fleets after only light use, the owners scrutinized every detail of her condition before undertaking a careful transformation — applying their vision at great expense to create this exceptional offering with a dramatically improved sailing experience.Pete and his wife Nicole have been sailing for a combined 40+ years, starting by honing basic skills on Lasers, progressing to bareboat monohull and catamaran charters, and in recent years, private boat ownership. Over the years, they've learned what truly matters for safe, comfortable cruising in both the Caribbean and the Sea of Cortez. With that knowledge, they undertook Tantalizer's 2025 & 2026 refit, creating a unique cruising yacht built for the experienced, discerning captain. You won't find most of these upgrades on a typical Beneteau Oceanis 45.Additional InformationAccommodationBright, modern styling with light satin oak wood finishes and generous headroom throughout the cabins.The main salon features a full galley to port and a U-shaped settee to starboard with an aft navigation station component and convertible dining table.The aft staterooms are thoughtfully designed with dedicated ensuite heads, abundant natural light, generous headroom and proper double berths without compromising the space surrounding the engine compartment.The forward stateroom occupies approximately one-third of the yacht’s interior and offers abundant private storage, a generous island double berth and a private ensuite head and shower.
