2003 Beneteau Oceanis 473 Samos, Greece – €135,000 Tax paid – Owners’ Version with Generator, AC & Recent Upgrades
This Beneteau Oceanis 473 is a rare chance to own one of the last true classics from Beneteau. DREAMCATCHER combines timeless craftsmanship with modern upgrades, offering teak decks, elegant wood interiors, and a hull designed for long-range comfort. She is the highly sought-after three-cabin owners’ version, never chartered or raced, and has been kept in the same family since new.
Equipped for both offshore cruising and liveaboard comfort, DREAMCATCHER features a Yanmar 90HP engine, bow thruster, generator, and air conditioning. Her in-mast furling system and powerful sail plan ensure easy handling, while her dry-sailed history underlines the care she has received.
Performance is a highlight. She cruises steadily at 7.5 knots with her deep-draft keel and upgraded engine. The rig was fully overhauled in 2025, with new standing rigging, spreader tips, and a serviced furling system. Electronics were modernised with a 2024 Garmin suite including chartplotter and AIS. Recent steering and rudder service, combined with an ultrasonic antifouling system, add to her turnkey reliability.
Step below deck and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. Rich wood joinery, three spacious cabins, and dual heads with showers provide comfort and privacy. The galley is fully equipped for extended living, while generous ventilation ensures a bright, airy feel.
Currently lying in the Dodecanese, DREAMCATCHER is ready for viewings and awaits her next discerning owner. She is exclusively offered through Williams & Smithells International, specialists in premium cruising yachts.
