Beneteau 473 Specifications

 

On port at the aft end of the salon is the traditional forward facing nav-station.  She has Raytheon Radar and Chart-plotter with an RL70 color display at the nav-station (and a RL80 at the helm) with full instrumentation, a Pioneer 10 disc CD changer with remote and much storage for all your reference materials, manuals and charts.

Across to starboard is the generous L-shaped galley featuring a large top loading freezer and a roomy front opening refrigerator for enough food to feed your crew.  Equipped with a four burner Force 10 gimballed stove with oven.  This is a great stove with an oven door that slides under the oven when open, keeping the entire stove still balanced in any sea state. A built in microwave, tons of counter space, deep double S.S. sinks with fitted cutting boards and an under counter "tip-out" garbage can for easy access.  The ventilated cabinets behind the galley and additional storage under all of the counters make this a very functional galley.   The position and design make it easy to use in any sea condition.

One of the very usable and unique features of this boat is the storage room behind the galley.  The bulkhead between the galley and the cockpit lacerate has an access door with makes this usually unwieldy space much more accessible and valuable.  It also allows access to the fully enclosed and sound proofed generator for maintenance.

The companionway stairs lift on pneumatic shocks to allow access to the front of the engine and the batteries.

Aft of the nav-station on the port side is the guest head with a manual head and its own 22 gallon holding tank, Corian countertops, molded liner, duplex GFI 110V outlet and shower with sump.  It is accessible from the salon and also has a private entrance from the aft guest cabin.

The aft stateroom has a huge berth with opening hatches and ports for light and ventilation.  Very roomy with space to dress in private and private access to the guest head.  It has it own controls for heat and air conditioning, lots of reading lights, hanging lockers and storage.
