Step Aboard AGNES A Proven Bluewater Cruiser Ready for New Adventures
At BVI Yacht Sales, we pride ourselves on connecting sailors with the best boats across the Caribbean. Whether you're an experienced cruiser looking for your next bluewater passage-maker or a dreamer ready to set sail, we guide you through every step with honesty, expertise, and a keen eye for value. AGNES, a 2005 Beneteau Oceanis 523, is a prime example of why working with an informative broker makes all the difference.
Currently lying in Grenada, she is positioned at the gateway to some of the most spectacular sailing grounds in the world. The Beneteau Oceanis 523 was awarded Boat of the Year in 2005, and for good reason. Designed for both luxury and performance, she is a spacious, capable offshore cruiser with elegant lines, comfortable living spaces, and the kind of sailing performance that keeps purists and passage-makers alike satisfied.
Built for Comfort, Performance & Independence One of the hallmarks of the Oceanis 523 is its combination of speed and comfort. Designed by Groupe Finot, she boasts a generous 52-foot hull with a 16-foot beam, offering a stable and smooth ride even in heavy seas. Her deep draft (2.35m) keeps her tracking true on offshore passages, while her 110HP Yanmar diesel engine ensures you have the power you need when the wind doesnt cooperate.
With an Onan 9.5 kW generator, six Kyocera 135W solar panels, and a D400 wind generator, AGNES is built for self-sufficiency, reducing your reliance on marinas and keeping you cruising longer. Her Spectra Newport 400 watermaker means fresh water is never an issue, a crucial feature for anyone planning extended voyages or living aboard. |
