Following the launch of the Oceanis 37 at the Southampton Boat Show 2007, the Salon Nautique in Paris last month saw the launch of the new Finot designed Beneteau Oceanis 31.  The overall concept of this boat is to supply the market with a comfortable, safe and fast family yacht at unbeatable value.

Aesthetically the Oceanis 31 has the strong exterior identity of the larger Oceanis 37.  Sporting a generous sail plan on a fractionally rigged mast, a narrow entry at the bows, a large cockpit and sleek side windows ensures that this boat will follow the success of her bigger sisters. 

Once on board the 31, in spite the constraint of her length overall, the cockpit still manages a totally dedicated life raft locker which is stored underneath the aft seat/transom.  Getting around the 900mm column mounted wheel is surprisingly easy and the cockpit locker to starboard is laid with shelving to facilitate storage.

The Nauta-designed interior emits the same sense of ‘plush’ as her bigger sisters.  The ‘Alpi’ woodwork combined with light-coloured fabrics and overhead hatches and screens radiates a bright and airy interior.  The spaces have been well thought out - the galley is by far the largest in its category, and the heads, chart table, and saloon make for a good family boat.

The largest achievement for the European Yard of the Year 2007 is to be able to launch this yacht at a price of EUR60,900 (Lm26,144).
