Beneteau Gran Turismo 50

The Beneteau Gran Turismo 50 represents the flagship expression of Beneteau’s sports cruiser philosophy, bringing together performance, space, and long-range comfort in a way that feels both powerful and refined. Designed with the Air Step hull at its core, she delivers confident handling, fast planing, and a remarkably smooth ride for her size, giving you the ability to cover ground quickly without ever feeling unsettled or overworked at the helm. This is a boat built for serious cruising, but without losing the ease and enjoyment that defines the Gran Turismo range.

On deck, the GT 50 is all about lifestyle and flow. The cockpit is expansive and thoughtfully arranged, creating distinct zones for dining, lounging, and sunbathing, all while maintaining an open, connected feel throughout. Large seating areas make entertaining effortless, and the seamless transition between cockpit and helm ensures the skipper remains part of the social space. At the helm, the design is clean and commanding, with excellent visibility and a layout that inspires confidence whether cruising at speed or manoeuvring in tighter waters.

Below deck, the Gran Turismo 50 moves into a different league. The interior is bright, modern, and exceptionally well finished, with large windows bringing in natural light and enhancing the feeling of space. The saloon is designed for proper time on board, not just short stays, with a practical galley and comfortable seating that makes extended cruising genuinely enjoyable. Accommodation is well considered, with cabins that offer real comfort and privacy, making weekends away or longer passages feel effortless rather than compromised.

At sea, she delivers exactly what you would expect from a flagship sports cruiser. Twin engine configurations provide strong performance, with top speeds typically in the region of 30+ knots depending on specification, while still maintaining stability and composure when conditions build. She feels planted, responsive, and reassuring, encouraging longer passages and more ambitious cruising plans without sacrificing comfort along the way.

As with all Beneteau models, the Gran Turismo 50 can be highly specified to suit individual requirements, with a wide range of options covering navigation, comfort, entertainment, and exterior configuration. Getting the specification right is key to unlocking her full potential on the water. Fox’s Yacht Sales can guide buyers through the available choices to ensure the boat is tailored perfectly from the outset.
