Built by Bénéteau in 1984, the First 325 PTE is robust, fast, and comfortable. This model remains a reliable choice on the market thanks to its seaworthy lines, pleasant interior layout, and sailing performance.

The boat has benefited from several recent maintenance operations: the engine had its exhaust elbow and hose replaced in 2022. Its 2025 service was carried out by a professional mechanic. The mainsail was replaced in 2019 with very few miles. A full survey dated October 2024 confirms a sound structure, with no grounding damage or deformation, and highlights a few points to monitor or upgrade (original standing rigging, safety equipment, some minor interior and exterior cosmetic details). The keel bolts are in good condition as they were replaced by a previous owner.
