Manufacturer Provided Description
Designed by Groupe Finot, the Beneteau 311 is fast and comfortable and has many characteristics expected from much larger boats. Her hull and integral molded grid system create an extremely strong and stiff structure. The bulb keel, despite its moderate draft, provides impressive speed and excellent performance under sail. Her large sail area is divided between the mainsail with long battens and the moderate overlap furling genoa. The deck layout is simple and efficient. The large cockpit has slatted teak seats and is completely uncluttered, with genoa sheet winches within easy reach of the helm. Standard features include lazyjacks, a quick reefing system, and a solid boom vang. Below deck and to port is the galley with a gimbaled stove, stainless steel sink with pressurized hot and cold water, and plenty of storage. To starboard, there is a large head with a marine toilet and wash basin, a shower with pressurized hot and cold water, a hanging locker, and ample room for sundries. The symmetrical salon consists of two settees flanking a large drop-leaf table. The 311 has two cabins - forward and aft. The private forward cabin has a large V-berth, a hanging locker, and lots of storage along the side of the hull. The aft cabin is also generous in size with plenty of room for storage.
