Used Beneteau Sense 50 Sailboats for Sale

The Beneteau Sense 50, introduced in late 2010, represented a paradigm shift in cruising monohull architecture. Designed by the naval architects Berret-Racoupeau with interior styling by Nauta Design, the Sense 50 was the flagship of a new "lifestyle" range that sought to bridge the gap between the stability and living space of a catamaran and the sailing aesthetics of a monohull. Unlike the traditional Oceanis line, which prioritizes volume and cabin count, the Sense 50 was engineered for a more sophisticated "on-deck" experience. Its most defining characteristic is the low-profile coachroof and a shallow companionway—featuring only three steps at a 45-degree angle—which creates a seamless transition between the massive cockpit and the saloon. This "one-level living" concept was a direct response to the growing popularity of multihulls among long-term cruisers.
