TASHTEGO is a boat you want to own. She is priced to sell quickly as seller can no longer use her. She looks gorgeous with her Flag Blue painted hull and freshly painted green bottom. The interior is varnished and beautiful and shows the boat has been lightly used for local day sailing. The seller says she has rarely, if ever, been slept on. Stored inside every winter, this owner has spared no expense to keep her up. New Batteries are being installed at the boat yard soon and electronics are recent.

From the brochure: "Elegance with a purpose. It seems to encompass exactly what the Beneteau 473 brings to her owners. Her interior is an amazing combination of volume and light with headroom of 6’8”. The panoramic deck lights – a first for any Beneteau model – flood the interior with natural light....

The Beneteau 473 is above all, a bluewater sailing yacht. She performs as well as she looks cutting through the water. Designed by sailors for sailors, the twin steering stations allow for extraordinary visibility and ease of handling. Furling sails is a simple task with standard roller furling main and genoa and convenient electric winch...

Her deck is equipped with ample handrails, wide walkways, and a resilient non-skid surface for easy and safe movement while under sail. And perhaps the most innovative feature aboard, the cockpit table can be folded away and stowed in its own custom carrying case – leaving you a sturdy footrest and handrail."

TASHTEGO will be launched and commissioned by the end of June. More photos and details will follow after she is pulled from her indoor storage building. This listing is preliminary but call for details and a chance to view her in person. She is priced to sell quickly.
