Firefly

Platinum Fleet
Oceanis 40.1

Firefly is one of our first Premier Tier vessels available in the Sausalito Platinum fleet. This stunning 2023 Beneteau Oceanis 40.1 is designed for exceptional comfort and performance on the water.

Firefly is equipped for effortless sailing with her in-mast furling mainsail and precise handling thanks to a bow thruster for close quarters maneuvering. The dual rudder system and folding propeller enhance her stability and performance, while the autopilot simplifies longer passages. Cruise in ultimate comfort on deck with the sea spray protection of a dodger and plush cockpit cushions.  Below deck, Firefly offers a spacious and inviting interior with a 3-cabin layout, including two aft quarter berths and a comfortable V-berth forward. With two heads, one of which is en suite in the V-berth, she comfortably sleeps up to six people, extending to eight when converting the drop-down salon table to a berth. For extended stays, enjoy the convenience of a top-loading fridge, stove & oven, and a hot water system for all your culinary needs. An inverter onboard ensures you can power small appliances or keep your devices charged, and modern navigation is made simple with the chartplotter at the helm.

Easy water access is provided by her convenient electric swim platform, perfect for a refreshing dip or boarding your tender. Firefly has a day sail comfort rating of 10 people.

    I would definitely recommend Modern Sailing to anyone who is interested in learning to sail the right way.

    I've taken two classes at MSS&C and was very happy with the program. This is also a great club with lots of opportunities for camaraderie and practice on the water. The boats in the fleet are fantastic and kept in tip-top shape. I highly recommend for all sailors and would-be sailors!

He is an outstanding individual, leader and sailing instructor. His knowledge and experience made us all feel safe and our Farallones Day Trip educational and just amazing.
