The 2004 Beneteau First 44.7, exemplified by the $120,000 vessel *Slide Rule*, offers a performance-oriented alternative to modern, high-volume cruising designs.0:45 Designed by Farr Yacht Design, the 44.7 features a 13-foot beam, a 37-foot 8-inch waterline, and a 40% ballast ratio, resulting in a stiff, powerful hull capable of efficient light-air performance.3:49 The cockpit prioritizes active sail handling over lounging, featuring a large wheel and well-placed sail controls.4:32 While the boat provides a functional three-cabin interior with 6'8" headroom, its performance pedigree necessitates careful inspection of high-load components.9:52 Prospective buyers should prioritize surveying the standing rigging, keel structure, and sail inventory, as the boat’s history of offshore racing in events like the Newport to Bermuda Race subjects the vessel to significant structural stress.7:13 With a standard draft of 6 feet 10 inches, the design balances upwind capability with moderate cruising versatility.11:30 A performance-focused hull reduces reliance on the engine, increasing average passage speeds and overall safety.10:59
