Listing Highlight: 41′ Beneteau 411 1998 | HYGGE

A Timeless Cruiser Ready for New Horizons and Unforgettable Journeys

Prepare to set sail on an exciting new chapter with the remarkable 1998 Beneteau 411 named HYGGE, a vessel designed for comfort, performance, and endless cruising pleasure! ? This renowned model holds a special place in sailing history as one of the most popular production boats ever built, with over 1,000 hulls gracing waters worldwide. HYGGE truly embodies the spirit of a roomy and comfortable cruiser that effortlessly sails like a dream, making her an ideal choice for exploring the stunning Chesapeake Bay or venturing further afield.

Having recently completed a year-long voyage from the Chesapeake Bay all the way to the Bahamas and back, HYGGE is a testament to reliability and seaworthiness. Her current owners have meticulously cared for and upgraded her, ensuring she is primed for her next adventure. One of HYGGE‘s standout features is her shallow draft and ICW-friendly rig, allowing access to countless charming anchorages and inland waterways that deeper-draft vessels can only dream of. Imagine enjoying tranquil evenings under the stars in secluded coves! ? The spacious cockpit is an inviting haven, offering ample room for relaxation and entertaining, all while being comfortably shaded by a generous bimini. Sail handling on HYGGE is incredibly straightforward, thanks to conveniences like in-mast furling, an efficient autopilot system, and all lines thoughtfully led aft to the cockpit. This design ensures that single-handed sailing or cruising with a small crew is both enjoyable and stress-free.

Below deck, HYGGE‘s two-cabin layout provides a welcoming and functional living space. The roomy salon boasts an L-shaped galley, perfect for preparing delicious meals, a U-shaped dinette ideal for shared meals and games, and an additional settee to port, offering extra seating and lounging options. The interior is designed for comfortable living on extended voyages, featuring ample storage and a warm, inviting atmosphere.

Over the past few years, HYGGE has received extensive upgrades, making her an even more desirable vessel. These enhancements include new macerators (2017), new glow plugs and raw water pump (2018), and a completely new mainsail and Genoa in 2018 to ensure optimal performance. In 2019, the Gori prop was balanced and rebuilt, and a new Lofrans windlass was installed for effortless anchoring. Further improvements include a diesel injector rebuild (2020), new West Marine AGM engine battery (2021), shore water port (2021), and impressive 2x200W solar panels (2021) for extended off-grid capabilities.

The commitment to her upkeep continued in 2022 with new 300# Martek davits, a complete bottom scraping, epoxy treatment, and fresh paint (re-painted again in fall 2024!), a new 44# Rocna anchor, and 200′ of G4 galvanized 3/8″ chain rode. A comprehensive electronics refit in 2022 brought state-of-the-art navigation, including a Garmin GPSMap 1243, Garmin GMR 18 xHD radar, Garmin Reactor 40 Autopilot, Garmin GMI 20 Wind instrument, Garmin VHF315, Garmin AIS800, and a GAM SS-2 Split VHF/AIS antenna. Finally, a new Dometic Cu-100 Compressor and Evaporator were added in 2023, ensuring comfortable interior climates.
