The Beneteau 45 continues the distinctive hull design that not only promotes sailing stability but also increases overall interior volume.  There are a  number of innovative details that promote utility and comfort: a chart table that is also a living room table, an open bathing platform making access to the sea easier.

Designers Finot-Conq have focused on making the 45 user-friendly, with an easy-to tack jib, a helm seat that lifts to reveal a wide-open transom, the mainsheet arch and substantial accommodations in a hull designed to be responsive under sail.
