About the CABOCHARD (BENETEAU)
The Beneteau Cabochard is a compact fractional sloop designed and built by Beneteau in France, with production records indicating a build year of 1974. With a hull count listed as unknown, this vessel represents a specific era of French boatbuilding characterized by lightweight construction and efficient sail plans.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for coastal cruising and daysailing due to its shallow 1.8 ft draft and lightweight 772.0 lb displacement, making it ideal for trailerable use and access to shallow waters.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low capsize ratio of 2.61 and a high sail area/displacement ratio of 19.43, the Cabochard is designed for performance in coastal waters rather than heavy offshore passage making.
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels from this era include other small trailerable fractionals like the O'Day 22 or early Catalina 22s, sharing similar fractional rig configurations and coastal cruising roles.
