The Beneteau First 260 Spirit is a French sailboat, that was designed by Group Finot and first built in 1994.[1][2][3]

The First 260 Spirit was developed into the Beneteau First 25.7 in 2004, which became the Beneteau First 25S in 2008.[1][3]

Production

The design was built by Beneteau in France, but is now out of production. During its production run 500 boats were completed.[1][3][4]

Design

The First 260 Spirit is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a plumb stem, a reverse transom, dual transom-hung rudders controlled by a tiller and a centreboard. It displaces 4,740 lb (2,150 kg) and carries 1,433 lb (650 kg) of ballast.[1][3]

The boat has a draft of 6.07 ft (1.85 m) with the centreboard extended and 2.79 ft (0.85 m) with it retracted.[1][3]

The boat is fitted with a Nanni Industries diesel engine. The fuel tank holds 8 U.S. gallons (30 L; 6.7 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 9 U.S. gallons (34 L; 7.5 imp gal).[1][3]

The design has a hull speed of 6.58 kn (12.19 km/h).[3][5]
