Description
Well-maintained Performance Cruiser!!!
Molto Bene is not just a 40 year old boat, she is a well maintained vintage/classic racer cruiser. Designed by German Frers for Beneteau with beautiful lines, she is heavy enough comfortably take on the ocean and quick enough to race very competitively. The interior has been updated for easy cruising and control lines lead aft for short handed sailing. Her history includes winning back to back Annapolis to Bermuda ocean races, six winters cruising the Caribbean and even a trip to Cuba. She is ready for more. Where do you want to go.
