The Beneteau First 24-2, emerging from the prolific drawing board of Groupe Finot, remains a benchmark for the "pocket cruiser" era of the 1980s. Designed to bridge the gap between trailerable daysailers and serious coastal cruisers, the 24-2 was an evolution of the original First 24 introduced in 1982, offering a blend of French performance flair and remarkably efficient interior volume. As one of the early successes in Beneteau's "First" line, it benefited from the era's shift toward wider beams carried aft—a signature of Jean-Marie Finot’s philosophy that prioritized both initial stability and spirited downwind performance. The hull was built primarily in Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie and served as a stepping stone for sailors moving up from the First 22 toward the larger First 25 and 26 siblings, which shared similar hull profiles and construction methodologies.
