The First 26 Beneteau is a 26.3ft masthead sloop designed by Groupe Finot and built in fiberglass by Beneteau between 1984 and 1991.
The First 26 Beneteau is a light sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
