Helix

Silver Fleet
Beneteau Oceanis 30.1

Helix is a Beneteau Oceanis 30.1 in our Sausalito Silver Plus Fleet. With a stemhead, hard-chine hull, and eye-catching profile, the Oceanis 30.1 presents like a scaled-down cruising yacht. A slender bow, balanced weight, and dual rudders deliver agile handling and performance on all points of sail. She carries a traditional mainsail with stackpack and lazy jacks, dual helms, and all lines lead aft for easy handling. A spacious cockpit accommodates up to 6 sailors comfortably on day sails.

Below deck, headroom is 6.5 feet in all areas where it is possible to stand. To port at the base of the companionway, an L-shaped galley offers storage, a 20 US gallon refrigerator, and a two-burner stove and oven. The large head is divided into a marine toilet on one side and a shower and washbasin on the other. Open entryways and lengthwise berths give Helix's two double cabins a spacious feel. The cabins can comfortably sleep 4 overnight and the benches in the salon provide extra sleeping space for 2 more. 

Reserve Helix for a day sail or multi-day charter and find out for yourself why the American sailing magazines Cruising World and Sail Magazine have both named the Oceanis 30.1 Best Boat of the Year!

    The Full Moon Sail with Skipper Bob Gutsgell was Ah-Mayzing!! The group dynamic was lovely and the views spectacular. I can't say enough good things about the experience. Thanks so much for the wonderful Club Sails, they are really great.

    Our team at Salesforce did the Corporate Regatta Team Buidling activity (August 2026). What a blast!! HIghly recommend for your next team activity. It's fun to be out on the water, but the skippers also did a great job of teaching us all the sailing basics. The race is set up well so that we all had a chance to try out different roles. We did it with 11 people across two boats but having more boats is also doable and would lead to even more competition.

    Thumbs up to (Club Skipper) Geoff (Love) and his wife Laura. I went on my first Club Sail on Sunday, January 18, 2026. They were terrific!

    All of the courses and my instructors (JT and Stan) were extremely professional and full of knowledge and experience. I found I was able to learn from their experiences beyond the scope of the courses, and look forward to future opportunities to do so. I would highly recommend Modern Sailing to anyone.

    I love sailing in the San Francisco Bay and greatly appreciate everything that MSC has to offer, the classes, clinics, club sails, racing and charters. I enjoy our supportive sailing community and use every opportunity to spend time on the water. After obtaining the certifications from MSC I did my first charter in Croatia in 2022 with my family. It was amazing and we’re looking forward to returning soon!
