Overview

Introducing Joie De Vivre II, a 2014 Beneteau Oceanis 48 that exemplifies the celebrated Oceanis philosophy of performance entwined with comfort and intelligent innovation. Designed by the renowned naval architects Berret-Racoupeau with interiors by Nauta Design, this sleek cruiser carries a streamlined hull with a distinctive chine that heightens stability, moderates heel, and delivers a poised, confident ride even when conditions become demanding. The deck plan is conceived for safety and effortless circulation, with wide side decks guiding you forward and a generously scaled cockpit that invites both active sailing and elegant relaxation.

Below, the Oceanis 48’s versatile interior shines. Joie De Vivre II is arranged in a three-cabin configuration, anchored by a forward owner’s suite complete with an en-suite bathroom and abundant storage. Sunlight cascades through large hull ports and multiple deck hatches, illuminating a spacious saloon with a welcoming U-shaped settee and a large dining table sized for a full crew. The galley is equally well considered, offering ample counter space, modern appliances, and plentiful stowage for extended passages. A queen-sized bed, private facilities, and generous cabinetry define the owner’s haven, while the guest cabins are thoughtfully appointed with comfortable berths, excellent natural light, and access to a second bathroom to ensure privacy and convenience for all aboard.

Under sail, the Oceanis 48 rewards with balance and control. A mainsail arch and a centered mast contribute to composed trim and predictable handling, while the deep keel enhances upwind capability. Twin helm stations elevate visibility and command, and the sail plan is purposefully efficient and manageable. This particular yacht is equipped with an in-mast furling mainsail and a furling headsail for effortless reefing and deployment, and she also carries a gently used asymmetrical spinnaker stowed in the foredeck sail locker for spirited off‑wind performance.

Innovation is felt from stem to stern. The drop-down transom transforms at the touch of a button into an inviting swim platform, creating a seamless waterside terrace. The cockpit can be fully enclosed for all‑weather comfort, with a custom bimini, dodger, and connector converging to protect the helm and social spaces. At the helm, dual stations integrate seating placed on the retracting swim platform for a distinctive blend of ergonomics and leisure. Mounted to the radar arch, an Intellian satellite TV receiver complements a well-curated suite of electronics that includes B&G radar, a B&G chartplotter with a multi‑function display, B&G autopilot, and B&G VHF, all supported by a Quick bow thruster for confident close‑quarters maneuvering. Forward, a Lewmar windlass streamlines anchor handling and is paired with a washdown station to keep ground tackle and deck gear clean before stowing. Below decks, a Magnum Energy management system optimizes onboard power, while a Fusion stereo head unit sets the soundtrack to every passage.

The Oceanis 48 is renowned for its adaptability, and Joie De Vivre II stands ready to reflect your sailing style. The platform supports a spectrum of configurations, from a self‑tacking jib for effortless short‑handed sailing to a performance‑oriented rig for those who prize speed, while interior options can further elevate finish, storage, and personalization. Altogether, this yacht is a confident expression of Beneteau’s commitment to quality, innovation, and seaworthy performance—equally at ease on a spontaneous weekend escape or a far‑ranging voyage.
