Freedom - Beneteau

2015 Beneteau Oceanis 55'

"Freedom"

"Freedom" stands out as one of the most impeccably maintained and equipped sailing yachts available for purchase. Featuring three opulent staterooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom, this vessel offers unparalleled comfort for both owners and guests. With a beam exceeding 16 feet, the spacious salon and galley are perfect for hosting gatherings or unwinding. Designed for extended voyages, "Freedom" is ideal for exploring the Bahamas, Keys, and Caribbean, thanks to her shoal keel. Her seasoned owners navigated her from Southern California through the Panama Canal to Florida last year. Equipped with a 1000-pound rated arch, she boasts 820 watts of solar power and Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries, ensuring ample energy supply. The Yanmar 4JH80 engine, paired with three 53-gallon fuel tanks, provides a 1000-mile motoring range at cruising speed. Additionally, her Code 0 and 3A asymmetrical spinnakers, along with a staysail and tri-radial laminate main and jib, enable "Freedom" to sail efficiently. The 15-gallon per hour AC & DC watermaker fills two 60-gallon freshwater tanks, ensuring plenty of water for long journeys.

"Freedom" is equipped with a comprehensive B&G electronics suite, including five MFDs, Navionics Platinum Plus navigation software, Starlink, Iridium Go with an arch-mounted antenna, a cell phone booster, WiFi and Bluetooth integration, and a 2000-watt sine wave inverter. The Yanmar engine data is integrated into the MFD network for monitoring fuel consumption and engine performance.

Inside, "Freedom" features a bright and expansive salon, thanks to numerous overhead and hull windows. The salon includes a stylish couch and a sectional with an expandable table that seats eight. The galley is well-appointed with a three-burner range and oven, refrigerator, separate deep freezer, dual-section sink with a pull-out faucet, additional filtered water faucet with blue light purification, microwave, dishwasher, and ample storage. Comfort is ensured with a central chiller and four air handlers powered by shore power or the 8kw Fischer Panda generator. Each stateroom is equipped with vacuflush heads, upgraded mattresses, and spring bases for a restful sleep.

Recently detailed and with a freshly painted bottom, "Freedom" is ready for her next owner. She comes with an extensive inventory of spare parts and sailing rigging, prepared for any adventure her new owner wishes to embark upon.
