Description

Boat Details

We are pleased to present a 2018 Beneteau Antares 8 offered for sale here at Hamble Point Marina. She is an ideal weekender for exploring the coast. Modern and stylish, she has everything to make short cruising a great experience.

This example is a 2018 build and a 2018 model with 200 hp Suzuki and benefits from having Webasto warm air diesel heating to both interior and cockpit, electric windlass and full aft closing canvas.

The Antares 8 has a flared-out hull that delivers wonderful driving sensations, while boasting excellent seakeeping. The dynamic V design of the cap clearly announces the boat’s stunning aesthetic design.

Unique on a boat this size, the Antares 8 habitability sets it apart from other motor cruisers in this category. The wheelhouse is accessed by a large sliding glass door, sheltering a well-equipped modular living space. There is a real double fore cabin below, with storage and a shower en suite, so you can stay on board for a few days.
