1996 Beneteau Oceanis 321: The Perfect Balance of Comfort and Performance

If you are looking for a capable coastal cruiser that feels significantly larger than her 32 feet, this 2-owner 1996 Beneteau Oceanis 321 deserves your full attention. Designed by the renowned Jean-Marie Finot (Groupe Finot), this vessel was built with an emphasis on maximum interior volume, stable handling, and true ease of sailing.

Whether you are stepping up from a smaller day-sailer or looking for a manageable family cruiser that doesn't compromise on comfort, the Oceanis 321 hits the sweet spot. Her wide beam is carried well aft, giving her an incredibly spacious cockpit and an aft cabin that rivals those found on 40-footers. Below deck, the cherry wood interior is bathed in natural light, offering over 6 feet of headroom and a layout designed for living aboard during extended weekend getaways.

Under sail, her light-moderate displacement and bulb keel provide a stiff, stable ride that handles a coastal chop with ease. The masthead sloop rig is forgiving and easy to manage short-handed, making her an ideal choice for couples or solo sailors.

Key Highlights

  • Unmatched Interior Volume: A massive private aft cabin, a comfortable V-berth forward, and a surprisingly large head with a shower.
  • Ease of Handling: All lines lead aft to the cockpit, making her incredibly easy to sail single-handed or with a small crew.
  • Shoal Draft Capable: With a 4'3" draft, she is perfect for exploring shallow anchorages in places like the Bahamas or the Chesapeake Bay.
  • Entertainer's Cockpit: The beamy design translates to a wide, comfortable cockpit with a walk-through transom and integrated swim platform.
  • Bottom Paint: Replaced 2 years ago
  • Standing Rigging: Mast, boom and standing rigging, vang all replaced in fall of 2020/winter 2021. Lifelines replaced at same time. 
  • Electronics: B&G Electronics. 4 displays: plotter, depth, wind, speed/temp. Fully NEMA 2000 compliant throughout the boat.
  • Sails: In-mast furling.
