Antares 8

On the live Antares 8 card the overview still calls the boat a Northern European production yacht: «Scandinavian yards» from 2014, about 240-870 hulls, length 7.8 m and beam 2.5 m, displacement about 4056 kg. Lower on the same page the chips already print something else: LOA 8.23 m, beam 2.79 m, production 2014+. The FAQ and checklist still pull standing rigging, saildrive and keel bolts, as if this were a sailing cruiser. Until the prose drops the wrong country and the wrong drive type, you are not yet looking at French Beneteau Antares 8 buyers mean in broker listings.

The model is a power weekender in the Antares line from Beneteau Powerboats (France), not a Scandinavian sail yard. Interior design is Sarrazin Design. On the card the chips hold the inboard plate window (8.23, 2.79, from ~2014). In the current outboard Cruising/Fishing line the brochure gives about 8.06 m LOA, beam about 2.80 m, light displacement about 2545 kg, draft 0.60-0.80 m, hull length about 6.98 m and an outboard up to about 250 HP - a neighbouring generation of the same family, not «Scandinavian 7.8 m». We do not confirm the template hull count 240-870: Gap. We do not invent an asking price.
