Beneteau Gran Turismo 36

April 23, 2020

She’s BENETEAU designed, American made, and her playground includes the rivers, lakes, and coasts of North America. The new Gran Turismo 36 boasts ingeniously designed living spaces that can easily accomodate up to seven and a zipwake dynamic trim control system to make challenging navigation second-nature. Let the games begin!

EXTERIOR DESIGN

The exterior deck layout is fully optimized for comfort and entertaining on board. Two bench seats face forward at the helm station, so four people can enjoy the thrills of navigation. The electric sunroof allows the whole area to be bathed in pleasant natural light. The natural light extends to a spacious cockpit lounge area which has room for up to seven passengers. Cleverly interchangeable, the aft bench seats fold back and serve as headrests for the extensive sunbathing area facing aft. Cooking meals is a joy in the outdoor galley, which is just forward of the aft swim platform.

The forward peak has generous space for a real owner cabin with a full-sized bed and ample storage. The aft cabin provides two extra berths separated by a door for onboard guests. Midship you will find a cozy lounge to port with a functional galley space fitted with high quality appliances. A best in class head arrangement offers separate shower and toilet spaces completely partitioned from the vanity.

Destinations

The Best of Two Worlds

By Mathew Channer

Interior British Columbia might not be as famous for recreational boating as Canada’s Great Lakes, yet it is no less a world-class boat­ing destination. The mountains offer their own flavour of marine adventure with their series of long, deep ribbon lakes, and there is perhaps no area that embodies this more uniquely than the iconic Okanagan basin in southern B.C. One could be forgiven for assuming this valley was purpose-built for nautical fun, with a few delightful perks thrown in to make the area entirely irresistible (wine-tasting, anyone?).
