The First 305 Beneteau is a 30.5ft masthead sloop designed by Jean Berret and built in fiberglass by Beneteau since 1985.
The First 305 Beneteau is a light sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
