Overview

Design and Build

The Beneteau Oceanis Clipper 423 is a well-proportioned cruising yacht that has proven itself as a reliable and comfortable option for both coastal sailing and longer trips. It sits in that sweet spot where you get proper space on board without stepping into something overly complex or demanding to handle.

She was designed with real cruising in mind. The emphasis is on usability, sensible systems, and a layout that works just as well for a weekend away as it does for extended time aboard.

Hull and Construction

Built in GRP with a fin keel and spade rudder, the design is balanced and forgiving.

  • GRP hull and deck
  • Fin keel
  • Spade rudder
  • Wheel steering

Rig and Sailing Configuration

The sloop rig is straightforward and set up to be managed without fuss. Most of the sail handling can be done from the cockpit which makes a noticeable difference when sailing short-handed.

  • Sloop rig
  • Furling headsail
  • Mainsail with reefing system
  • Lines led aft

It is a setup that encourages you to go sailing rather than overthink it.

Engine and Propulsion

Powered by an inboard diesel engine with shaft drive, Quickthorn offers reliable and predictable handling when manoeuvring.

  • Inboard diesel engine
  • Shaft drive
  • Simple controls at the helm

Accommodation and Layout

This is where the Oceanis 423 really comes into its own, with a spacious, airy interior, and a quality of finish that creates a luxurious feel.

  • Three-cabin layout
  • Forward owner’s cabin with double berth
  • Two aft double cabins
  • Large saloon with dining area
  • Excellent sea-going galley layout
  • Separate heads and shower

There is plenty of light and ventilation throughout, which makes the whole space feel open and comfortable.

Condition and Ownership

Quickthorn is in excellent condition, having been well cared for by just two owners since new. She is a good example of the marque and is well worth viewing.
