47' Beneteau Oceanis 473

High Mana is a well-maintained and proven 2003 Beneteau Oceanis 473. She has just (Dec 25) completed an Atlantic crossing and is currently cruising in the Eastern Caribbean.

The Oceanis 473 has earned a reputation as one of Beneteaus most successful large cruising designs of the early 2000s, offering a rare blend of interior volume, sailing performance, and robust construction. Designed by Groupe Finot, the 473 remains highly sought after by private cruisers and charter operators alike, thanks to her solid hull, moderate displacement, and practical deck layout that works just as well short-handed as it does with a full crew.

One of High Manas greatest strengths is her interior layout. The four-cabin, two-head configuration is ideal for families, charter-style cruising, or owners who regularly host guests. Forward are two generous double-berth cabins to port and starboard, each offering excellent storage and natural light. Aft, two additional double cabins provide comfortable accommodations with easy access to the two heads located at the aft end of the saloon. The saloon itself is bright and open, with large hull windows and overhead hatches creating a light and welcoming space. The convertible saloon table allows the main living area to become an additional double berth when needed, making High Mana a true six- to ten-person cruising platform.

The galley and navigation station follow Beneteaus well-proven design philosophy. Storage, refrigeration, and work surfaces are thoughtfully arranged for extended cruising, and the overall interior finish reflects the solid build quality Beneteau was known for during this era.

On deck, the Oceanis 473 is known for her comfortable and secure cockpit, wide side decks, and well-thought-out sail handling. Twin helm stations provide excellent visibility and easy access to controls, while the broad stern and swim platform make boarding from a dinghy or swimming at anchor simple and safe.
