She was built between 2011 and 2018 by Bénéteau France.

Beneteau oceanis rudder. Page 1 Once again thank you and we wish you as much pleasure sailing your boat as we had in building her for you. When we dropped the rudder post from our boat we found that it was from a Beneteau Cyclades with hull number 5088. The Shoal draft version features a shorter keel to grant access to shallow areas.

In a thousand miles the shaft might go through 80000 cycles but bearing failure isnt normally unpredictable so the play will slowly increase to the point there is a mechanical failure - replace early. The Oceanis 301 is easy to sail but lively to helm and promises new experiences and thrills.

It is a nylon type bearing which seems to be glassed in and not designed to be replaceable at all. Were the first and last stop for parts and accessories. The designation Oceanis.

The company also shows an inclination for retaining what works and evolving good ideas. From my grandfather to his descendants who operate the company today we have always been. The Shoal draft version features a shorter keel to grant access to shallow areas.

A very recent beneteau rudder failure was caused by resonance from the propeller amplified buy loose steering cables that destroyed the bottom bearing housing causing a slowish leak. Like its siblings the Oceanis 41 shows a lot of this tried and proven lineage especially in construction scantlings but it also has taken some bold new strides. Beneteau has a penchant for detailed engineering and the new Oceanis line has gone through quite a bit of RD.

She is built since 2015 by Bénéteau France. At Beneteau the sea is at the roots of our family tree. Start date Mar 29 2017.
