The Beneteau Oceanis 311 is a popular family cruising yacht, offering comfortable accommodation together with rewarding and easily managed sailing characteristics. Kephi II is a particularly well-presented example and is in very good condition for her age. She has benefitted from significant recent expenditure, including replacement standing and running rigging in 2023, a new fully battened Crusader mainsail and 100% genoa in 2025, together with a new propeller shaft, stern seal and cutlass bearing in 2023. Her sprayhood and frame were renewed in 2024, with new spray dodgers following in 2025. The original-style Oceanis 311 hull graphics have also been replaced with more modern alternatives, giving Kephi II a noticeably fresher and more contemporary appearance than many examples of her age.

Construction

Built by Beneteau in 2000 to a Jean-Marie Finot design of Groupe Finot. Hull Number 373. White GRP hull with white GRP deck and moulded non-slip finish. Cast iron fin keel with bulb. Spade hung rudder and wheel steering. Kephi II is presented in very good condition for her age. Of particular note externally, the typical hull graphics associated with Oceanis 311s of this era have been replaced with more modern alternatives. The change gives her a cleaner, more contemporary appearance and helps make her look noticeably younger than her actual years. The hull was antifouled and the anodes replaced in 2026, with the hull anode studs also replaced in 2026. The owner reports no known previous osmosis treatment or significant defects.
