Launches: Say Hello to the Antares 11!

Aug 13, 2020

Beneteau announces the launch of the latest addition to the Antares range! With a length overall of 36’7″, the new flagship of the fleet takes the lead in the outboard family cruiser category.

Meeting high standards in safety, innovation, and comfort, the builder believes she’ll make a wonderful boat for small families. With a convertible salon settee, smart galley, and ergonomic helm station, nothing is missing inside the large salon wheelhouse. Down below, she can sleep five with a full-beam aft cabin and a double master in the forward peak. A proper head with separate shower room, lots of storage, and large profiled windows on each side, illustrate the level of comfort and quality of life aboard this boat. She can be used for many different boating programs, making her ideal for a wide range of fun and leisure activities suited to the whole family.

The result of a new collaboration between Beneteau and Sarrazin Design, the spirited modern silhouette is emphasized by the vast areas of glazing in the wheelhouse, providing optimum light on board. Lots of smart modular solutions make life on board very pleasant.
Powered with up to 2 x 300 hp outboard engines she boasts fine performance.

Story and photos by Jennifer M. Smith
