Company History
Beneteau Yachts, now the largest producer of yachts in the world, was founded by Benjamin Beneteau in 1884 in the Atlantic coastal fishing village of Saint Gilles-Croix-de-Vie, France. Benjamin Beneteau was a shipwright who started out making tuna boats and sailing trawlers, and in 1964 Benjamin’s two grandchildren, Annette and Andre, diversified the company with the introduction of fiberglass sailing yachts. Still in the family today, Beneteau is one of the oldest family-run boat-building yards in the world. Today, thousands of Beneteau’s sailing yachts and luxury yachts navigate the oceans, seas, lakes, and rivers with 40 different yacht models to offer, covering every market niche – from leisure boating, to long distance luxury yachts, and everything in between – Beneteau boats for sale span the market. Beneteau most notably provides a wide range of sailing yachts ranging from small boats, like the Beneteau First 14, and mini yachts below 49ft, all the way to big boats such as the Oceanis Yacht 62. Beneteau also offers a wide range of luxury yachts, such as the Gran Turismo 40 and Swift Trawler 44 and their latest, launch the Beneteau Grand Trawler 62.
World’s Largest Producer of Yachts
After four generations of pioneering, Beneteau has grown from 17 to 6,000 employees and has separated themselves from their competition by building more than 5,000 Beneteau boats for sale annually. Fifty years ago, Beneteau was a small family-owned company that made fishing boats in a French village. Now, thanks to their continued commitment to innovation and staying true to their founding values, they have transformed into the world’s largest producer of yachts and commands a substantial share of the international marine market. The company is a global leader of sailing yachts and luxury yachts, with over 400 dealers across Europe, the United States, and beyond with over 80,000 owners. The yacht builder has won various innovation and design awards, leading the industry with advanced technology. Their reputation for building some of the most sought after pleasure yachts is still strong today, especially with the launch of new luxury yacht models, such as the Beneteau Grand Trawler 62. Beneteau Yachts is one of the top three sailboat yacht builders in the United States.
