FIRST

40 years of iconic brand heritage. The signature features of the FIRST range have not changed since its conception in 1977 – these boats have always been designed for sailors who enjoy club racing as much as cruising, joining them into one cohesive product line, the proverbial best of both worlds. Today, BENETEAU takes another step in this direction with the launch of the new FIRST range. These boats offer simplicity, performances, and comfortable interiors and cockpits geared towards daysailing and coastal cruising. Renewing the competition spirit of the brand, they represent a true adaptation to the needs and expectations of the widest variety of sailors.

FIRST 44

The FIRST 44 embodies a natural link between the FIRST 36 and FIRST 53, equally refining and redefining performance, elegance and comfort – a new Biscontini/Argento creation that truly denies itself nothing.

FIRST 53

The First 53 is a deft execution of style and power, an ocean-racing thoroughbred aptly camouflaged behind a sleek, stylish figure. The gentle reverse sheer and low-slung coachroof make her look fast even when she is immobile.

Iconic Design

From the very first glance, a First stands out. The line’s signature slender hull, low profile, and assertive style have made it a favorite of seasoned racers and ambitious cruisers alike. Created in collaboration with world-renowned naval architects and designers, every First is optimized for both responsiveness and beauty — a balance of bold form and functional purpose.

Performance

You don’t need to race to feel the thrill of the First. As soon as you hoist the sails, the yacht responds with speed and agility, even in light air. Its finely tuned hull design allows it to surf and accelerate effortlessly, creating an unmatched connection between boat, sailor, and sea. Whether you’re on a relaxed coastal cruise or in regatta mode, the First delivers that unmistakable rush.
