Top-Option, Lightly Used Oceanis 40.1 with Low Hours and Excellent Upkeep
SOPHIA is a lightly used, extremely well-kept 2022 Beneteau Oceanis 40.1 that stands out for her top-level options, private family use, and unusually fresh presentation. With only 204 hours on her Yanmar 45 HP diesel, she has led an easy life of coastal cruising, daysailing, weekend trips, and short hops rather than hard offshore miles or full-time liveaboard use.
The Oceanis 40.1 is one of Beneteau’s most successful new-generation cruising designs. Her Marc Lombard hull carries beam well aft with a stepped hull form, twin rudders, and a powerful but approachable sail plan. The result is a yacht that feels larger than her length, sails with rewarding performance, and remains easy to manage for a couple or family.
What makes SOPHIA especially compelling is the option list. She is equipped with the Comfort Trim Level, Upwind and Downwind Pack, B&G Offshore Pack, retractable bow thruster, electric coachroof winch, electric windlass, electrically operated swim platform, teak cockpit floor, custom canvas package, air conditioning, upgraded batteries, and shoal-draft/ICW-friendly configuration. These are the options buyers want, and they materially improve comfort, performance, and ease of ownership.
Below, SOPHIA features the bright white oak Alpi interior with Marlin Weiss upholstery, upgraded brown oak laminated cabin soles, three cabins, two heads, electric freshwater toilets, a large saloon, a practical L-shaped galley, and excellent natural light. Her interior and exterior condition reflect low use and attentive ownership, with cushions, joinery, gelcoat, systems, and canvas all presenting as a yacht that has been cared for properly.
For a buyer seeking a late-model, highly optioned, turn-key 40-foot cruiser for the Chesapeake, New England, ICW, Florida, or Bahamas, SOPHIA is a standout. She offers modern Beneteau design, smart factory options, low engine hours, excellent upkeep, and a feature set that would be difficult and costly to replicate after purchase.

INTERIOR ACCOMODATIONS AND LAYOUT
The Oceanis 40.1 interior is a major reason this model has been so successful. Beneteau and Nauta Design created a bright, contemporary layout that makes exceptional use of the yacht’s beam and stepped hull form. SOPHIA’s white oak Alpi joinery, Marlin Weiss upholstery, brown oak laminated cabin soles, large hull windows, opening hatches, and LED lighting give the interior a clean, modern feel that presents exceptionally well because of her low use and careful ownership.
SOPHIA is arranged in a three-cabin, two-head layout. The owner’s cabin is forward with an island double berth and private en-suite head with separate shower. Two aft cabins provide comfortable guest accommodations, while the main saloon and L-shaped galley create an open social area suited to family cruising, entertaining, and longer time aboard.
GALLEY
The L-shaped galley is positioned to port and remains connected to the saloon while still providing secure working space. It is equipped for coastal cruising, weekends aboard, and longer trips away from the dock.
- L-shaped galley with practical working surfaces
- Stainless steel two-burner stove and oven on gimbal
- Large DC refrigerator with top and front-loading access
- Compact sink cover / cutting board to maximize counter space
- Microwave oven - 115 V
- Hot and cold pressurized water
- Abundant storage in lockers and drawers
