Additional Information

Description

The Beneteau Antares 9 is a sleek modern boat reimagined with innovations and enhancements taken from larger models. Built for fun-filled weekends on the water, this new version offers even more ways to enjoy the sea. It is easier to move around and handle, and even better in good company whether you’re anchored or cruising.

 

The new Beneteau Antares 9 has an elegant profile and boasts sleek, powerful lines, enhanced by a silver rubbing strake and long hull windows. The wheelhouse arch, a real hallmark of the line, forms a slightly broken curve. It joins the extensive coachroof which protects the generously sized aft cockpit (1.7 m by 2.4 m). By adding an extra seat, the L-shaped bench seat can be converted into a U-shaped saloon area, the ideal layout for a large number of guests. This modular saloon can be easily converted into a sunbathing area when you want to relax and sunbathe.

 

The new Benteau Antares 9 is perfectly suited to cruising with family or friends, offering its passengers a remarkable quality of life on board. Surrounded by large windows, the interior lounge is bathed in light. The modern galley is fitted with an 80-litre fridge, two electric rings or hobs, an optional microwave oven and plenty of storage space.

 

The forward owner's cabin promises cosy nights at sea. With its queen-size bed, lacquered furniture, mood lighting, padded bed head, and spacious hanging locker, it delivers an exceptional level of comfort and elegance rarely found on boats this size. The equally comfortable guest cabin can accommodate two passengers, while the saloon can be converted to provide two additional berths.

 

The new Beneteau Antares 9 is a delicate balance between performance and safety, and exterior space and interior volume. Every detail has been designed to make movement easier and provide seamless access to the sea, making trips to sea even more relaxing and enjoyable. The new Antares 9 is all about family cruising and water sports with friends, embodying versatility, comfort, and elegance.

This example has a great inventory and is beautifully presented and ready to go.

Owners comment:

We have really enjoyed Sirius since we have owned her and will be sad to see her go. We are upgrading to a different style of boat. (?) 

 

There have been lots of adventures with her in and around Dartmouth with friends and some weeks away for training in the Solent and a week away for the Isle of Wight festival with friends staying on the boat with us. 

 

She has been very reliable and has been very well looked after with immaculate service history.

The bespoke pocket spring mattresses for the main cabin are incredibly comfy for overnight stays. 

 

Adding AIS was a big safety upgrade for boating around the Solent and our longer trips away. 

 

We will be very sad to see her go….
