1994 Beneteau First 210,Twin Rudders,,Main and Jib sails,Quiet and dependable Honda 5hp, Factory trailer

The Beneteau First 210 is the F235's little sister. The F210 is a little bit shorter, but otherwise the hull is essentially the same with a swing keel.

The F210 is a very popular boat in Europe. Designed by Groupe Finot, it is still in production in France, having previously evolved to the First 211 and now to the First 21.7.

My First 210 (Hull #73) was made at the Beneteau factory in South Carolina. It has a blue hull, swing keel, twin rudders, and an open transom.

The F210's fin keel swings down to a draft of 5 feet 10 inches, giving a very stiff ride. It weighs 770 pounds of solid iron. Swing it up, and the boat draws 28 inches. Take the boat right up to the beach. The swing keel makes the boat easy to launch from the trailer.

Like the F235, the F210 is fast and responsive. It points well. It is easy to handle. Because of the deep keel, it is as fast or faster than a F235, especially upwind.

The jib is CDI roller furling.
The cabin is simple, but adequate. Sleeps 4, stove, porta-potti.

The factory trailer has a single axle, surge brakes, tongue extender and mast raising equipment.

Sell,asking $7500.00, $5500.00without trailer,$4500.00 without engine.Will deliver boat if it will help.
