The Beneteau 311, often marketed under the Oceanis Clipper series, represents a strategic pivot by the French builder to combine a racebred hull with the approachable ergonomics of a coastal cruiser. Launched in the late 1990s and remaining in production through the early 2000s, the 311 utilized the successful hull lines of the First 31.7—a yacht renowned for its performance in European club racing. By commissioning Groupe Finot to adapt this platform, Beneteau created a vessel that appeals to sailors who refuse to sacrifice hull speed for cruising comfort. The result is a lightdisplacement cruiser that feels significantly more agile than its contemporaries in the 30to32foot bracket, making it a staple in both the private brokerage market and international charter fleets.
