Specifications

The new 37 footer capitalizes on the innovations of the seventh generation of Oceanis cruisers, which it completes. The Oceanis 37.1 is the eighth model launched since 2017 and it has all the line’s hallmarks and offers eco-friendly solutions like an optional electric motor or iroko slatted cockpit floor.

Exterior design

The deck is open and easily maneuverable, with an absence of back stays – a layout used successfully on the  Oceanis 30.1  and  Oceanis 34.1 . The generous double spreaders on the Oceanis 37.1 promise excellent performance.

To retain easy handling shorthanded, all the rigging is brought back to the two aft winches. Only the halyards remain grouped around the coachroof. All the instruments, including a 7-inch plotter, can be found on the starboard helm console.

The hull is flared with a rib giving it fluid lines below water and allowing it to achieve greater power and stability. It also improves the hull rigidity, controls the weight well, and provides greater volume inside the bow.

Interior design

The Oceanis 37.1 cruiser’s interior volume is remarkable. The generous space in the salon is nearly as large as a 40 footer. The salon is offset to port with a sofa for relaxing and a comfortable table for six, facing the lengthwise galley. The fore cabin has a breathtaking view of the horizon through two large portholes integrated in the hull side. In the two-bathroom version, a spacious double bed is positioned against the starboard hull. The stern has been optimized for comfort. In the standard version, there is a king-size double bed and a huge sail locker that can be accessed from inside or out.

WALKTHROUGH

Join us for an extraordinary visit.

Intelligent Sustainable Design

Available in 2 versions

In the standard version with a self-tacking jib, we've focused on making cruising easier. Meanwhile, sailors who enjoy lively performance boats will love the First Line version, with the square-top mainsail and Genoa.

Iroko Substitution for Teak

Iroko is an African wood that successfully replaces teak. Made with a new assembly process, called Iro-Deck, perfected by BENETEAU, it's been installed for the cockpit decking. It provides uniform color, excellent sustainability, and rules out the risk of cracks in solid wood decks.

Available With Electric Engine Power

The Oceanis 37.1 is available with an electric engine with a 12 kW pod and 10 kilowatt-hour batteries. This allows for cruising programs on inland waterways where silent, carbon-free sailing is popular.

Equipped With SEANAPPS

The easiest way to keep your boat safe and ready to cruise anytime.

The new Seanapps  app is the ultimate solution to help you indulge your passion for boating. With the touch of your finger, you can easily connect, monitor and order services for your boat – from routine maintenance, to requesting a wash or fuel or having us complete a repair.

Beneteau 37

• By Jeremy McGeary
• Updated: September 17, 2008

Twenty-first century technology has changed the relationships among boat buyers, boatbuilders, and boat dealers. Buyers, treating sailboats as a commodity, are comparison shopping on the Web, then, trusting the manufacturer to create a reliable product, dickering through the dealer over the color, the extras, and the price. Builders are refining their processes accordingly.

Indications of this trend are evident in the new cruising sailboats that Beneteau USA announced at the U.S. Sailboat Show in Annapolis in October 2006. Beneath the new exterior styling and the svelte interior décor, the latter by high-profile Nauta Design, lie more subtle changes: While revamping the product line, the builder could re-engineer its already trim production line, introducing efficiencies that allow it to offer even more boat for a still, relatively speaking, low price. The counterpoint is some loss of individuality between models. Belowdecks, as above, the three boats Beneteau introduced in 2007, the 43, 40, and 37, bear strong similarities; in some cases, they share components.

In a world where customers choose options with a mouse click, Garth Hitchens, who presides over Beneteau dealer Annapolis Yacht Sales, wonders how long his sales offices and inventory of Beneteaus will remain relevant. Even so, he embraces his role enthusiastically.

As we put a French-built Beneteau 37 through its paces last October, Hitchens pointed out the changes that he and his fellow dealers were requesting of Beneteau for the American version that was then on its way into production at the company’s facility in Marion, South Carolina. An example was the head. As installed on this boat, the bigger marine toilet Hitchens specifies for American clients obstructed the inward opening door-until Hitchens and his crew rehung it, a modification later reflected in the production version from America.

On the Beneteau 37, the companionway hatch has been strikingly refined into a bolt-on, all-in-one contrivance in which the top slide and drop board are articulated yet separable. Separated, the slide can be opened to leave the drop board in place. Connected, the slide takes with it the drop board, which can then be pushed up to stow under the slide. While operating it isn’t intuitive, the unit appears stout enough to survive the learning process. The companionway itself offers a secure descent from the cockpit to the galley, where the counter and its robust fiddle rails provide further support.

The galley, although necessarily compact to permit access to the sleeping cabin aft of it, has adequate workspace, aided by the front-opening refrigerator that leaves the countertop intact. Storage is a little short: Full-size dinner plates won’t fit in the slender, designer-styled wood-faced cabinets outboard, and no drawers are provided wherein to stow utensils. The centerline double sinks are functional both for their intended purpose and as a handy, secure repository for items in transit to or from the cockpit.

To starboard, the commodious, all-in-one head and shower compartment presents a vista of white, easy-to-clean gelcoat. Slanted mirror-front cabinets outboard above the sink let even the lanky shave without contortions. The chart desk, located forward of the head, passes the chart-book size test. It has nooks and crannies to hold the navigator’s tools and fascia area for radios and instruments.

The styling in the saloon marks the return of ergonomic functionality-in the Beneteau 37 and the boat’s sister ships, rectilinear settees with square corners invite sitting and reclining in multiple comfortable postures and attitudes. If this is the fruit of contemporary design, long may it stay in vogue. However, the fore-and-aft overhead grabrail is absent, and the stainless-steel “design elements” that decorate the outboard shelves are neither fiddle nor handrail.

Forward, the V-berth cabin has generous standing room, a small dresser, a spacious berth, and, given the hanging locker, drawers, shelves, and shoulder-level cabinets, a variety of stowage options.

The aft sleeping cabin has a generous athwartships berth with sitting headroom at its head, decent dressing room, and three opening ports, one of them located in the transom. A space between the aft bulkhead and the transom creates an extra stowage area and appears to give access to the steering system, but doesn’t-that seems to require some dismantling of the overhead.

Access to the engine is better. The companionway ladder hinges just above the third step (of four). Held up by gas struts, it exposes the entire front of the engine. Panels in the boat’s head and aft cabin reveal service points on the sides.

When getting under way, my first impression was of the vastness of the cockpit-a family of four can sit side by side on the helm bench, the center section of which hinges open, held by a gas strut, to provide access to the transom platform.

The Beneteau 37 has more area in the foretriangle than in the mainsail, although it still sports an easy-to-tame 105-percent genoa. When we were sailing upwind in a gusty breeze, the first reef we took was in the main, and this tamed the helm immediately, although the boat was still a handful in the bigger puffs, and I would’ve appreciated better footing at my preferred steering position on the windward side.

On the wind, the Beneteau 37, showing its Finot-Conq lineage, embarrassed boats of greater waterline length despite having an in-mast furling mainsail. Off the wind, the large headsail helped provide solid performance across a wide range of wind angles.

Under power, the 37 responded well for us in normal maneuvers despite having, Hitchens advised, a rather under-pitched folding propeller. Bringing it to a full stop from full ahead was slow. A fixed or, better yet, a feathering prop would likely help. The prop is on a conventional shaft and far enough aft to get some useful thrust off the rudder. In addition to the 29-horsepower Yanmar, there’s a 40-horsepower option available.

As a package, the Beneteau 37 combines sprightly sailing with generous accommodations. Add in the comprehensive standard outfit, and the sum is a product of predictable quality and should have wide appeal in the new-model market.

Beneteau 37

Beneteau 37 is a 37 ′ 7 ″ / 11.5 m monohull sailboat designed by Jean Marie Finot (Groupe Finot) and built by Beneteau starting in 2006.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

Deep Keel draft: 6.25’ Ballast 3,902 lbs. Also called OCEANIS 37. Another version sold as MOORINGS 37.2.
