Beneteau Oceanis Clipper 323

This is an easy-to-handle all-round boat with an impressive design in terms of comfort inside, at the helm or on deck. With well-planned interior details, the Oceanis Clipper 323 offers comfortable living and storage spaces. It has all the beneficial features of a larger boat.

The Beneteau Oceanis Clipper 323 model was presented in autumn 2003. Manufactured by French Beneteau. This safe and well-equipped sailboat boasts stability and performance, both downwind and upwind, thanks to its large keel. It has a very large cockpit with room for the whole family. Two large cabins and a saloon-sofas 1,95 m long with bed-opportunities makes it probably one of the largest 32-footers on the market.


One of the most striking aspects of this boat is the headroom in the saloon – it's only slightly lower than two meters. The sense of space is enhanced by lots of natural light, from both side windows and roof panels. There is also a small aft-facing chart table and navigation station. To port of the landing stairs is the L-shaped forward-facing galley with stove, oven and a sink. Aft of the galley is the entrance to the aft cabin with a double berth and a wardrobe. To starboard of the landing stairs is a toilet with sink and wardrobe. The owners cabin, which is separable with a door to the saloon, has a wardrobe and two berths.


This Beneteau Oceanis Clipper has had a number of updates made over the years. Among some that are done in 2023 can be mentioned: new service- and starting batteries, the seams of the spray hood reinforced, oven and stove service, etc. The bottom of the boat underwent a thorough service in 2019.


In conclusion, the Oceanis 323 is a lot of boat for the money. Sold by its first owners. The boat has partly functioned as a rental boat 2005-2012. The boat has been stored in the hall every winter, the sails kept warm and maintained by a sailmaker when necessary. The boat is currently stored in Turku at a shipyard.
