The Beneteau Evasion 28 is a quintessential example of the 1970s European motorsailer, a design that sought to harmonize the rugged reliability of a fishing trawler with the recreational capabilities of a cruising sailboat. Produced by Beneteau between 1975 and 1980, with a total of 123 hulls completed, the Evasion 28 was designed by André Bénéteau during a transformative period for the yard. It was a time when the brand was leveraging its heritage in commercial fishing to define a new category of coastal cruiser that prioritized protection from the elements and internal volume over raw racing performance. Built with a solid fiberglass hull and a balsa-cored deck, the Evasion 28 is recognized for its distinctive wheelhouse profile and dual-steering capability, which was a revolutionary feature for a vessel under 30 feet at the time of its release. This model is often cited on the Beneteau Group official heritage page as a "modern and reliable" bridge between their traditional maritime roots and the fiberglass era.
