Beneteau Oceanis 60 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the brokerage market for a Beneteau Oceanis 60 means looking at a 59.84-foot flagship cruiser produced from 2015 as the development of the Oceanis 58. Most used examples are ex-charter or privately owned three-cabin layouts, though both configurations appear. With a beam of 16.37 feet and a 48,614-pound displacement on 14,187 pounds of iron ballast, she is a big, beamy cruiser whose tender garage and electric transom define the aft end.
Layouts on the Used Market
Owner three-cabin layouts are the more common on the used market, but both are available; ex-charter examples are common. The standard plan places a master stateroom forward with island berth and separate head and shower, a port quarter cabin and a starboard quarter cabin with a convertible scissor berth, and a J-shaped galley with twin sinks. An optional crew cabin in the forepeak is accessed through a foredeck hatch. The single-level extended cockpit, electric aluminum companionway shutter, and L-shaped helm seats with steps to the side decks are consistent across the range.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Commonly fitted equipment on used boats centers on comfort and systems: electric winches, furling main, autopilot, chartplotter, radar, AIS, watermaker, air conditioning, washing machine, teak decks, bimini, and swim platform are usual. For buyer consequence, the power-and-energy cluster (autopilot, inverter, watermaker) determines off-grid range, while canvas-and-sail-handling (furling main, bimini, electric winches) shapes daily rigging effort. Often-seen additions include bow thruster, heater, life raft, and code zero on the bowsprit tack eye; a self-tacking jib and dinghy davits are less common owner upgrades.
What to Inspect
The hull is a solid polyester laminate with an internal sub-frame liner bonded in place, and the balsa-core deck is fastened to the hull by bonding and screws with a teak toerail capping the joint. On any used example, examine that hull-to-deck joint and the balsa-cored deck for moisture or separation, since the teak cap must remain sealed. The keel is cast-iron with a molded bulb in shoal or deep draft; check the bulb-hull interface and the large high-aspect rudder and Goiot steering linkage for play. The electric fold-down transom and tender-garage hatches should be cycled to confirm seals and motor function, and the electric aluminum companionway shutter and bow-thruster controls on the starboard helm console should be tested in operation.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These yachts typically appear in Spain, the United States, Italy, Croatia, Greece, and Thailand. For a shopper, the checklist is short: confirm the three-cabin or owner layout suits your plans, verify the commonly fitted systems (watermaker, air conditioning, electric winches) are operational, inspect the balsa deck and hull-deck joint for core issues, and exercise the electric transom, shutter, and thruster. A clean example with the standard B&G Zeus plotter and in-mast furler is a turnkey bluewater-capable flagship.
