INTRODUCTION
Welcome
You have just taken delivery of your new BENETEAU boat and we thank you for the confidence you have shown us in
ordering a vessel of our brand. The whole BENETEAU team welcomes you aboard.
A BENETEAU is made to last, in order to bring you all the pleasure you expect from a vessel over a period of many years.
Each boat is subject to the utmost attention to detail from the design stage right through to launching.
This manual is meant to help you to enjoy your boat comfortably and safely. It includes the boat specifications, the
equipment provided or installed, the systems and tips on her operation and maintenance. Some of the equipment
described in this manual may be optional.
Your BENETEAU dealer will be able to help and advise you in the use and maintenance of your boat.
The initial commissioning of your boat will require a lot of skill and care. The proper working of all your boat's equipment
is the result of the quality of the commissioning operations. This is why the initial launch must be overseen by your dealer.
Read this Owner's Manual carefully and take the time to get to know your boat before you use it.
The better you know your vessel the more pleasure you will get from being at the helm.
Keep this manual somewhere safe and should you sell your boat, hand it to the new owner.
You are advised to keep any user's guides supplied by the manufacturers of any equipment for your boat
(accessories...),together with your manual.
For all the equipment on your boat,please
read the instruction manuals provided by the
manufacturer.
