The Beneteau Cyclades 39.3 is a French sailboat that was designed by Berret-Racoupeau as a cruiser and first built in 2007. The series is named for the Greek island chain.[1][2][3][4][5]

The Cyclades 39.3 is a development of the 2002 Beneteau 393 from the same design team, optimized for the yacht charter market with innovations such as dual ship's wheels.[1][2][3][6]

Production[edit]

The design was built by Beneteau in France, starting in 2007, but it is now out of production.[1][2][3][7][8]

Design[edit]

The Cyclades 39.3 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of glassfibre, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, with two sets of unswept spreaders and aluminium spars with stainless steel wire standing rigging. The hull has a slightly raked stem, a walk through reverse transom with a swimming platform, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by dual wheels and a fixed fin keel with a weighted bulb. It displaces 15,642 lb (7,095 kg) and carries 4,619 lb (2,095 kg) of cast iron ballast.[1][2][3]

The boat has a draft of 6.23 ft (1.90 m) with the standard keel.[1][2][3]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar diesel engine of 40 hp (30 kW) for docking and manoeuvring. The fuel tank holds 58 U.S. gallons (220 L; 48 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 87 U.S. gallons (330 L; 72 imp gal).[1][2][3]

The design has sleeping accommodation for six people, with a double "V"-berth berth in the bow cabin, an U-shaped settee in the main salon and two aft cabins, each with a double berth. The galley is located on the port side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is of straight configuration and is equipped with a two-burner stove, an icebox and a double sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the starboard side. There are two heads, one in the bow cabin on the starboard side and one on the port side, amidships.[1][2][3]

The design has a hull speed of 7.93 kn (14.69 km/h).[1][2][3]
