2005 • Beneteau Oceanis 473

Every now and then a yacht comes to the brokerage that has been pampered by her original owner and used so lightly she still has a new appearance. ALEXANDRA is that yacht. She belongs to her original owner who daysailed her occasionally on San Francisco Bay. With 252 hours on her motor she is barely broken in. Her gelcoat shines, her interior is flawless and overall she is in exceptional condition. Her three stateroom two head layout is excellent for the whole family to enjoy.
