About the Beneteau Oceanis 46.1
The Oceanis 46.1 replaced the 45 and did it convincingly enough to take European Yacht of the Year as a family cruiser in 2019. Pascal Conq of Finot-Conq drew the hull, Nauta did the styling and the interior, and the result became one of Beneteau's most-ordered boats.
The hull is the story. It flares out sharply to a chine just above the waterline, so the boat stays narrow where it cuts through the water but is wide where the berths are. That is why the cabins on a 46-footer feel like cabins from a bigger boat, and why the hull stands up to its sail plan rather than lying over and complaining.
It is set up as a performance cruiser rather than a condominium with a mast. The boat rewards being sailed properly — trim it and it goes — but it will also forgive a crew who simply wants to point it at an island and arrive comfortably.
Who it suits
- Crews who actually want to sail
- This is a monohull that goes well. If half your group would rather be trimming than sunbathing, it is a better week than a catamaran of the same price.
- Two or three couples, or a family
- Charter layouts run to four cabins, and the chined hull means the aft cabins are genuinely usable rather than a crawl-in.
- Harbours where a catamaran will not fit
- A monohull berth is easier to find and cheaper than a catamaran berth, especially in July and August in Greece and Croatia.
- Less suited to crews who will not tolerate heel
- It is a sailing boat. It leans. If anyone aboard is nervous about that, a catamaran is the honest answer rather than a smaller monohull.
Layout & life aboard
- Cabins are the point of the chine
- Hull volume is pushed out exactly where the berths sit, so double cabins are wide rather than wedge-shaped.
- Twin wheels, open transom
- Two helms aft with a drop-down bathing platform between them, which doubles as the boarding point and the swimming step.
- Saloon on one level with a proper galley
- Straight galley along one side with real worktop and a seating area that works as a dining table for the whole crew.
- Sun and shade
- The cockpit table folds and the sunbathing is on the coachroof and foredeck rather than built into the cockpit.
- If shade matters to you, confirm the boat has a bimini and not just a sprayhood.
Under sail
- Keel draft is the thing to check
- The 46.1 is offered with a shallow keel, a deep keel, or a deeper performance foil. Charter boats are usually the shallower options.
- It changes where you can anchor and how well the boat points. Ask which one you are getting.
- Upwind
- Genuinely good for a cruising boat. The chine gives form stability, so the boat carries sail and keeps driving rather than heeling away from it.
- Rig options
- Some boats carry a taller "First Line" rig with a deeper keel; those are noticeably quicker.
- Not a common charter specification, but worth asking if you care.
- Under power
- Single engine and a saildrive. Berthing takes more thought than on a catamaran — use prop walk rather than fight it.
Worth knowing before you book
- Ask which keel the boat has
- Draft decides which anchorages are open to you. On a shallow-keel boat you can tuck into places a deep-keel sister cannot.
- It also changes how high the boat points, which matters on a long upwind leg.
- Learn the prop walk on day one
- A single-engine monohull backs to one side. Find out which way in open water before you try it between two expensive boats.
- The bathing platform is a system, not a hatch
- It carries the boarding ladder and often the dinghy arrangement; if it misbehaves it affects everything you do at anchor.
- Open and close it at handover with the base crew standing there.
- Four cabins means four cabins of people
- The boat takes the berths comfortably; the cockpit and heads are what you notice when the boat is completely full.

Frequently asked questions
For bareboat charter the skipper on board needs a recognised sailing license and, in most countries, a VHF certificate. If nobody in your group is licensed, book the yacht with a professional skipper.
Charter weeks normally run Saturday to Saturday, with check-in in the afternoon and check-out in the morning at the home base (Wickhams Cay II Marina).
Cross-border sailing is often possible with prior notice and additional paperwork. Ask us before booking so the operator can prepare the documents.
Fuel is normally paid on a tank-to-tank basis: you receive the yacht with a full tank and return it full.
