Beneteau Oceanis 45 - earned the Yacht of the Year title at the last show in Düsseldorf. What was the reason to give her such high praise? First of all, it is a good sailing performance and excellent handling - the boat does not cause any tension at the helm. Secondly, it is a very good habitability. Thirdly, it is a folding bathing platform - very unusual and useful detail not typical for mass yachts.
Finally, it should be noted that the contours and proportions of the yacht correspond to the modern racing yachts of the open sea - flat stern contours with maximum width displaced strongly in the stern.
