SALES DESCRIPTION
The Beneteau Gran Turismo 38 is a highly successful sports cruiser, combining performance, comfort, and livability. Its opening hard-top allows enjoying navigation in good weather while providing excellent protection when conditions change.
This 2011 unit stands out mainly for its excellent overall condition and particularly complete equipment. The joystick for the two Volvo D4s greatly facilitates marina maneuvers, while the bow thruster adds extra comfort.
The solar panel installation combined with the Victron 3000 W inverter is also a major plus for onboard autonomy.
Inside, the two cabins, the independent bathroom, equipped kitchen, and plentiful storage make extended stays aboard possible.
A ready-to-enjoy unit with a real condition matching the photographs presented.

For a Leboncoin or Boat24 listing, I would use the title: "BENETEAU GRAN TURISMO 38 – 2x D4 260 – JOYSTICK – HARD TOP – 478 H – EXCELLENT CONDITION". It is much more appealing than simply "GT38 2011," as searches are heavily based on engine details, joystick, and hours.
