Beneteau First 345 for sale in Valletta, Malta

The Beneteau First 345 was designed as a moderate displacement racer/cruiser, and much of its popularity has been because of its success in blending the two functions. In fact, it could be said that the First is a racing boat that contains a cruising interior.

This particular model had a major overhauling during 2017 & 2018 replacing almost everything, including the engine which is still under warranty.
