2014 Beneteau Antares 7.80 with Suzuki DF150 150hp outboard engine. The Beneteau Antares 7.80 is an attractive and capable family cruiser, equally well suited to coastal cruising, fishing, sightseeing and relaxed days afloat. Kiara has been immensely enjoyed by her current owners, their children and grandchildren, providing many memorable days on the water. She has been used for fishing trips, sightseeing excursions and relaxed al fresco dining, with bacon sandwiches apparently being a particular speciality!
Her spacious wheelhouse provides excellent visibility and comfortable protection from the elements, while the practical layout makes her an ideal family boat. The cockpit cover offers additional shelter and increases the usable space when required, while being easily removed to make the most of warmer, sunnier days. Below decks, the Antares 7.80 provides surprisingly generous accommodation for her size, including a forward double berth, convertible saloon, galley and separate heads compartment, making her suitable for occasional overnight stays as well as enjoyable days afloat.
A well-loved example of a popular and versatile model, Kiara is ready to create many more memorable days exploring with her next owners.
