Canadian Yachting June 2023 - 19
Between the hatches, portlights and the
bright wood finish, the interior never feels
buried in the hull.
The Oceanis Yacht 60 offers a choice
of a self-tacking jib or a 105% genoa, and
a standard rig or the performance version
which adds five feet to the mast and 20%
to the upwind sail area. Our test boat was
outfitted with the taller mast and larger
headsail and in 10-12 knots of true breeze
on Biscayne Bay, we sailed 7.6 knots at 60
degrees apparent wind angle (AWA).
This big boat is built for spicier winds
which, sadly, we didn't experience that
day, so we raised the 1,507-square-foot
screecher and took off at 9.8 knots on a
beam reach. We were able to carry this
large downwind sail all the way up to 70
degrees AWA so we kept it flying to have

close at hand. The mainsail is offered with
in-mast furling or a traditional hoist and a
V-boom which is how our test boat was
outfitted. However, the vast majority of
buyers are expected to opt for the furler to
manage the large (829-square-foot) sail.
The Yacht 60 can be sailed easily by two
on fast coastal passages but this model
isn't ICW-friendly due to its 80' 2 " air
draft.
ACCOMMODATIONS
The Oceanis Yacht 60 is available with
only one layout - three cabins and three
heads, and also with only two choices of
wood finish - light oak or dark walnut.
For a semi-custom model, this may sound
a bit limiting but Beneteau has dialed in
what works for the vast majority of buyers
and sticks with their winning formula.
