The Beneteau 311 is a recreational keelboat, built in France by Beneteau from 1997 to 2003, with 1042 boats built. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [ excessive citations ]
The design was also marketed as the Oceanis 311, and the Stardust 311 for the yacht charter market. The hull design was also the basis for the Figaro Solo, the Beneteau First 310, Beneteau First 31.7 and the Beneteau Oceanis 300. [1] [8] [9] [2] [10] [11] [3] [12] [13] [4] [14] [15] [16] [ excessive citations ]
Designed by Groupe Finot, the hull is solid polyester glassfibre, with a balsa core deck. The hull has a slightly raked stem, a reverse transom, and an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel.
It has a fractional sloop rig, with a deck-stepped mast, one set of swept spreaders and aluminium spars with continuous 1X19 stainless steel wire standing rigging. A mast-furling mainsail was optional.
The Oceanis 311 Clipper was a model with many factory options as standard equipment. [11]
It has a hull speed of 7.17 kn (13.28 km/h). Keel variantes include:
The fuel tank holds 17 U.S. gallons (64 L; 14 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 48 U.S. gallons (180 L; 40 imp gal). [1] [2] [3] [4]
The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth berth, two straight settees around a table in the main cabin and an aft cabin with a double berth on the port side. The galley is to port just forward of the companionway ladder. It is C-shaped and is equipped with a four-burner stove, an ice box and a double sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley. The head is starboard aft and includes a shower. Cabin headroom is 73 in (185 cm). [1] [2] [3] [4]
