Bènèteau Oceanis 321 |
Brief details |
Builder |
Bènèteau, France/USA |
The Oceanis 321 is a modern fast cruiser with a comfortable cruising layout featuring a good sized single aft cabin for a 32 foot boat, or two rather more cramped twin aft cabins. The 321 seems less common in the UK market than the 311 and 331 models. |

The Oceanis 321 was designed for Beneteau by Groupe Finot and introduced in around 1993, remaining in production until around 2000. Many of the boats were built in the USA, in their factory in South Carolina.
Unlike the quite similar but smaller Oceanis 311 design, the Oceanis 321 only appears to have been sold with one keel option, a medium draught iron bulbed fin. |
