S/V Orion is a TOBY Yard, Sint Maarten (Dutch Part) based 2017 Beneteau Oceanis For Sale By Broker. Responses to inquiries may come from a broker who is representing the owner as a fiduciary. This owner requires financial settlement only. No trades.

The Beneteau Oceanis 41.1 is generally well regarded as a comfortable and easy-to-sail cruiser with a spacious interior and large cockpit. It features a modern design with a setback rig for balanced performance and a semi-chine hull for stability, making it a good choice for cruising couples or families. Positive aspects include a large hydraulic swim platform, twin helm stations, and an uncluttered cockpit thanks to the arch-mounted mainsheet.

Orion is a 2017 Beneteau Oceanis 41.1 shoal draft, located in Sint Maarten. She is kept solely for the owner’s personal use. Dual helms and a spacious cockpit with a table and a boom above the arch provide comfortable deck living. An electric swim platform at the stern allows easy access. A new oversized bimini provides protection from the tropical sun. Over the past two years the boat has undergone significant upgrades to install new and upgraded items on the yacht. The owner lives on the West Coast, USA, and wants Orion sold. The yacht is free and clear.

New bottom paint March 2026.

Owner’s manual and equipment manuals are available on the yacht.

The boat was upgraded to modernize Orion and to replace items stolen in the off-season. The boat looks new and really needs nothing other than personal touches.

A current survey by Garth Steyn, registered surveyor, is available upon request.

With decades of brokerage experience in the Caribbean and Canada, expertise spans yacht valuation, sales, and guiding clients through life-changing sailing adventures.
