The Beneteau First 30 ES, designed by Jean Berret and launched in the mid1980s, represents a pivotal moment in the evolution of the modern performance cruiser. While its predecessor, the André Mauricdesigned First 30 of 1977, was a legendary HalfTonner characterized by the pinched ends and heavy displacement of the IOR (International Offshore Rule) era, the Berretdesigned First 30 (1985) introduced a more modern, beamier, and faster hull form. The "ES" designation stands for Évolution Sportive, a performanceoriented trim package that Beneteau offered to appeal to the club racing circuit and sailors who prioritized speed over the heavier cruising amenities found in its sister ship, the First 305.
