About This Vessel

The Beneteau Oceanis 473 is a 47-foot sailboat for up to 6 guests in 3 cabins, without air conditioning. Charters start at $550 a night for 2 guests, with the crew, meals cooked on board and drinks included; transport from Panama City and the Guna Yala tax are extra.

Discover the true spirit of sailing aboard the Beneteau Oceanis 473. This 47-foot monohull is legendary among sailors for its perfect balance of performance and comfort. Unlike modern floating condos, this yacht offers an authentic connection to the sea without sacrificing comfort. With a wide 14-foot beam, the salon and cockpit feel incredibly spacious, offering plenty of room for up to 6 guests. There are 3 cabins, two doubles and one twin with two single berths, and 3 bathrooms. Switch on the spectacular underwater blue lights at night to watch rays, fish, and turtles swim beneath the boat while you enjoy a cocktail.
