SEA BANSHEE is a 1996 Beneteau Oceanis 40 Center Cockpit and is a well-cared-for cruiser that offers a great mix of comfort, performance, and practicality. Powered by a reliable 50HP Yanmar diesel engine, it’s well-suited for both coastal cruising and longer offshore passages.

The center cockpit provides a safe, protected space for sailing and relaxing, with easy access to the transom swim platform and shower. Below deck, the layout features two private cabins, each with its own head, along with a functional galley and a spacious saloon for dining or unwinding.

A Beneteau Oceanis 40 Center Cockpit is surprisingly well-suited to San Francisco Bay because it strikes an excellent balance between comfort, seaworthiness, and manageable sailing characteristics. While it wasn't designed as a racing boat for the Bay, it excels as a cruiser in one of the world's finest sailing venues.

Many Bay sailors eventually decide they value comfort as much as speed. The Oceanis 40 CC offers:

  • A secure cockpit for sailing in 20 - 30 knots.
  • Comfortable motion in steep Bay chop.
  • Excellent visibility for navigating among ferries and commercial traffic.
  • Spacious accommodations for overnighting or extended cruising.
  • Proven offshore capability for coastal passages.

For someone who enjoys daysailing on San Francisco Bay and also wants to spend a week cruising the coast or the Sacramento - San Joaquin Delta, the 1996 Oceanis 40 Center Cockpit is a very well-rounded choice.
