About the OCEANIS 370 (BENETEAU)
Winged Keel version draft: 4.17'/1.27m.
The Beneteau Oceanis 370, designed by Phillipe Briand, is a masthead sloop built by Beneteau in 1990. With a displacement of 12787.0 lb and a beam of 12.42 ft, it offers a balanced performance profile for its era, though the exact number of hulls built is not specified in the available data.
- Best for:
- This vessel suits coastal cruisers and weekend sailors who prioritize interior volume and ease of handling, as evidenced by the prevalence of bimini installations and solar panel upgrades for comfort and autonomy.
- Bluewater capability:
- While the low capsize ratio of 2.13 and moderate displacement of 12787.0 lb suggest reasonable offshore stability, the high frequency of keel smile and sump cracking reports necessitates rigorous structural inspection before considering extended bluewater passages.
- Comparables:
- It competes with other early-1990s performance cruisers like the Beneteau First 36 or the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 34, sharing similar masthead sloop rigs and fin keel designs aimed at a balance of speed and livability.
