Beneteau Antares 860 Fly Bridge
This 1988 Beneteau Antares 860 Fly is not a tired classic it is a comprehensively renewed boat that has spent its recent life in the hands of an unusually thorough owner, with invoices to prove every step.
The refit touched almost everything: new flexiteek decking throughout, a complete stainless-finish galley, a custom-built 200 L stainless steel water tank, fully renewed interior lining, an electrical panel brought back to standard, and a new helm seat. The cockpit was rebuilt to original specification, and the entire electronics suite is new.
At 8.57 m with a flybridge, an enclosed saloon and a forward owner's cabin, she offers genuine cruising capability in a size that stays easy to handle and inexpensive to keep. Twin Volvo 130 hp diesels on shaft drive give reliable, well-proven propulsion. Semi-offshore equipment is complete and in place.
A rare opportunity to acquire a well-known hull in a condition that is very difficult to find on this model.
