Bluebird is a lightly used three-cabin, two-head shoal draft version of the successful Beneteau Oceanis 40.1, featuring the light oak interior with dark oak floors. This one-owner boat has just 245 engine hours and has never left the Chesapeake bay. Each winter, she has been stored on land, shrink-wrapped, with all canvas and sails removed and stored indoors.
The Oceanis 40.1 offers an exceptional balance of comfort and performance. The spacious cockpit features twin wheels and a fold-down swim platform for easy access to the water. Primary winches positioned aft make short-handed sailing simple and efficient. Below deck, a large U-shaped galley, dedicated workstation, two full heads with showers, and abundant natural light create a comfortable and practical cruising interior.

- Furling mainsail with 105% furling genoa

- Fischer Panda generator (55 hours)
