The Beneteau Oceanis 31.1 is a compact, versatile, and efficient sailing yacht that is perfect for cruisers seeking adventure with ease of handling and comfortable living space. Designed by Finot-Conq architects, this award-winning vessel delivers both performance and style, making it ideal for weekend excursions and longer cruises alike. At 31 feet, the Oceanis 31.1 is compact enough to explore shallow waters but spacious enough to offer impressive accommodations for up to six passengers.
Design and Performance
The Oceanis 31.1 features a modern, sleek hull design with a distinctive chine that enhances both stability and interior volume. Its broad beam extends well aft, providing exceptional stability and making the cockpit roomy and comfortable. The deep T-shaped cockpit is optimized for easy handling, with all lines leading back to the helm station. Twin wheels are available in some configurations, enhancing control and visibility, especially when sailing single-handed or with a small crew.
With a total sail area of around 47.8 square meters (514 square feet), the Oceanis 31.1 is available in two rigging configurations: a standard rig and an in-mast furling option. The yacht’s keel options—a 5’1” standard draft or a 4’3” shoal draft—cater to different cruising needs, allowing access to a variety of shallow and deep water anchorages. This model is powered by a Yanmar 21 HP diesel engine, providing reliable propulsion for times when the wind is light or when precise maneuvering is necessary.
