The Beneteau First Class 10, introduced in the early 1980s, represents a pivotal moment in the evolution of European racer-cruisers. Designed by the formidable architectural duo of Groupe Finot and Jacques Fauroux, the vessel was conceived as a high-performance one-design platform that prioritized speed and technical sailing over the domestic comforts found in Beneteau’s First or Oceanis lines of the same era. Built during a period of intense innovation in fiberglass construction, the First Class 10 utilized a light displacement philosophy and a powerful sail plan to dominate coastal racing circuits. According to the official Beneteau Group heritage archives, the model was produced between 1982 and 1987, serving as a larger, offshore-capable sibling to the wildly successful First Class 8.
