Beneteau, Jeanneau, Bavaria, Elan, etc. mass production boats that circumnavigated
Beneteau, Jeanneau, Bavaria, Elan, etc. mass production boats that circumnavigated - make thread describing Boat , type nad year of production.
I wonder how many done it - although should sink as no ''Bluewater production'' as Amel, Oyster, HR, Hylas, etc.
I wonder how many of them are here.

Not sure what the point of the OP is.
Look at the Workd Arc lists for the last few years, plenty of Beneteau, Jeanneau, Bavaria on it

Re: Beneteau, Jeanneau, Bavaria, Elan, etc. mass production boats that circumnavigate
My friend Jordan sailed a benetau oceanic 35 (2017) from Florida to New Caledonia with his wife and son. Jordan and I are planning a circumnavigation in 2025 and will use a production boat.
Kontiki went across the pacific with no engine made of raft logs. production boats are fine.
As sailor boy said, just look at the list for the ARC

Re: Beneteau, Jeanneau, Bavaria, Elan, etc. mass production boats that circumnavigate
Of the boats listed, I would focus on the Jeanneau.
IMHO, they are better built and have better hand holds. When looking at the model of boat you wish to buy, imagine with a 5-10 degree heal and suddenly rolling 20 degrees the other way. Where would you grab hold???

ARC is just the small part of sailing boats which are crossing oceans. More of them sails solo.

Just take a look at M.Jambo channel on YouTube. That will give you some ideas about what can be achieved with a very basic production yacht.

Re: Beneteau, Jeanneau, Bavaria, Elan, etc. mass production boats that circumnavigate
Well said Boatman61, I used to think as long as it floats, has a pointy bow and you are brave enough anything can sail around the world. Now having followed Yann Quenet even a pointy bow is not a requirement.
For Freshman, a client last week sailed USA, UK, Med, Panama, then home to Australia. Stock standard 34 foot Benny. Boat was still in excellent structural condition after all those miles.
Cheers

Our Amel Super Maramu has been around the world--twice.
Does that give us two votes?

Re: Beneteau, Jeanneau, Bavaria, Elan, etc. mass production boats that circumnavigate
Freshman, sailing is not a boat it’s a skill, the most credible sailors are humble, there is no though talking when you are on the late watch and the make of your vessel is not what counts.
As an officer for a very large emergency service municipality I would tell the new fire fighters obsessed with what the patch says on the front of there helmet. Firefighting is not what is on the helmet, it’s what’s in the hart.
Circumnavigation is not who made your boat, it’s the road that got you there and the hart/soul that did it.
Lots of Hinkleys, Swans, sparkman& Stephan’s vessels in the mooring fields around my local harbor Oyster Bay. Nobody moves when the wind goes over 25 knots, except me and my 2010 Jeanneau 44i.
Cheers

World Arc boats are a small number of the total boats that circumnavigate in a year. I seriously doubt that more solo sailors complete a circumnavaigation in a year than a typical World Arc number.
