Production

The design was built by Beneteau in France, starting in 2004, but it is now out of production. [1] [2] [3] [7] [8]

Design

The Beneteau 373 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of glassfibre, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop masthead sloop rig, with two sets of swept spreaders and aluminium spars with stainless steel wire standing rigging. The hull has a slightly raked stem, a walk-through reverse transom with a swimming platform, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel or optional shoal-draft keel. It displaces 14,617 lb (6,630 kg) and carries 3,867 lb (1,754 kg) of cast iron ballast or 4,844 lb (2,197 kg) of ballast with the shoal draft keel. [1] [2] [3] [6] [9]

The boat has a draft of 6.07 ft (1.85 m) with the standard keel and 4.75 ft (1.45 m) with the optional shoal draft keel. [1] [2] [3] [9]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar 23JH4E diesel engine of 40 hp (30 kW) for docking and manoeuvring. The fuel tank holds 33 U.S. gallons (120 L; 27 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 99 U.S. gallons (370 L; 82 imp gal). [1] [2] [3]

The design has sleeping accommodation for four to six people in two or three cabins. It has a double "V"-berth berth in the bow cabin, an L-shaped settee and a straight settee in the main cabin and an aft cabin with a double berth on the port side. A second aft cabin with a double is optional. The galley is located on the port side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is L-shaped and is equipped with a three-burner stove, an icebox and a double sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the starboard side. The head is located aft, on the starboard side. [1] [2] [3] [6] [9]

The design has a hull speed of 7.67 kn (14.20 km/h) and a PHRF handicap of 120 to 141, or 102 to 138 with the deep draft keel. [1] [2] [3] [10]
