More about this yacht
Hull & Construction
Neverly is built on a solid fiberglass hull with a structural fiberglass pan bonded 360 degrees to the hull and deck — a construction approach that gives her exceptional rigidity, a quiet ride, and long-term durability well suited to serious offshore use. Her deck and superstructure use a cored fiberglass sandwich construction, shaving weight aloft without sacrificing strength, which translates directly into livelier performance and a stiffer, more stable platform underway. This is the kind of build quality that has made Beneteau's First series a benchmark among production performance cruisers, and it's exactly why these hulls have such a strong reputation for holding their value and standing up to years of hard sailing. For a buyer looking for a boat that's as capable offshore as she is comfortable at the dock, this is a hull worth trusting.

Accommodations
Below decks, Neverly sleeps up to seven across a thoughtful four-cabin layout. Forward, a private double stateroom with its own head and integral shower offers a quiet retreat, while aft, twin double quarter cabins to port and starboard provide comfortable, separated sleeping space — ideal for guests or a second couple aboard. The main salon centers on a U-shaped settee to starboard with a bar built into the seat back, balanced by a second settee to port, all finished in warm beechwood joinery with teak plywood soles underfoot. A proper navigation station with varnished chart table sits aft to port, opposite a full galley with double stainless sinks, pressurized hot and cold water, and a gimbaled two-burner stove with oven. A second head with shower serves the aft cabins, rounding out a layout built as much for real cruising as for coastal weekending.
