Official dealers for the full product range of new Beneteau & Wellcraft boats.

The Beneteau First 24 is a modern trailerable performance cruiser that blends the thrill of sailing with genuine weekend cruising capability. Designed for sailors who want speed, simplicity, and versatility in one compact package, she delivers an engaging sailing experience without sacrificing comfort or practicality.

With her lightweight, planing-capable hull and efficient sail plan, the First 24 is quick to respond and rewarding to sail in a wide range of conditions. She accelerates cleanly, points well, and remains balanced and predictable even when pushed. This is a boat built to be driven, offering real performance potential while still remaining approachable for confident recreational sailors.

Below deck, the focus is on smart use of space. The interior is compact but thoughtfully arranged, providing essential overnight accommodation for weekend cruising or short coastal trips. The layout is designed for practicality, with simple but effective finishes that prioritise durability and usability after a day on the water rather than unnecessary complexity.

On deck, everything is set up with ease of handling in mind. The cockpit is open and functional, giving the helm a clear working space for active sailing. Control lines are led for efficient trimming, making short-handed sailing entirely realistic. Whether you’re racing, cruising, or simply enjoying fast coastal passages, the First 24 is designed to keep sailing enjoyable and intuitive.

Her trailerable design adds another layer of freedom, allowing owners to explore different sailing grounds without being tied to a single marina. Launching is straightforward, and rigging is designed to be manageable, meaning more time spent sailing and less time preparing.

This is a yacht for sailors who want versatility without compromise. Fast enough to excite, simple enough to enjoy regularly, and practical enough for short stays onboard, she sits comfortably between pure racing dinghies and full cruising yachts.

As with all boats in the First range, specification and setup can be tailored to suit intended use, whether that leans towards performance sailing, club racing, or relaxed coastal cruising.

    Fox’s were brilliant. Friendly, professional and always helpful. Parting company with a much-loved boat was painful - but made less so by James. Thank you!

    I want to extend my sincere thanks to Tim and James at Foxs for their exceptional service in selling my sailboat. They handled everything swiftly and professionally, completing the sale in less than 3 months. I highly recommend the Foxs team and would definitely choose them again for any future buying or selling needs.
