2026 Beneteau First 36 - a new yacht available with delivery from the factory very soon

The First 36 is built around the principle of high-performance sailing – allowing it to excel in fully-crewed club racing, but also appealing to the active cruiser who enjoys family sailing and holidays.

With quality deck fittings and hardware the placement compliments the meticulously designed deck and interior ergonomics. The First 36 is the first mainstream racer/cruiser where onboard comfort doesn’t affect the experience of high performance sailing. A standard aluminium mast, a cast iron keel and a 2.25m draught have been chosen to offer the best relationship between performance and ease of use. There is a carbon rig package available and shallow draft keel option.

As well as being fast, the First 36 is also refined, comfortable and multi-purpose. The spacious interior highlights the traditions of First predecessors offering 3 double cabins separated by a well appointed saloon with galley, nav station and large seated dining area.

A variety of optional extras are available in addition to the standard specification, the First 36 can be easily configured to suit your requirements. Part Exchange and competitive finance packages are available.
