Beneteau Baroudeur

The Beneteau Baroudeur (English: Adventurer) is a French sailboat that was designed by André Bénéteau as a cruiser and first built in 1970.

Production
The design was built by Beneteau in France, from 1970 until 1980, with 200 boats completed, but it is now out of production.

Design
The Baroudeur is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of glassfibre, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, with a deck-stepped mast, one set of unswept spreaders and aluminium spars with stainless steel wire standing rigging. The hull has a spooned raked stem, an angled transom, a keel-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed long keel. It displaces 5071 lb and carries 1653 lb of ballast.

The boat has a draft of 3.44 ft with the standard keel. The Baroudeur is fitted with a French Renault 15 hp gasoline engine for docking and manoeuvring.

The design has sleeping accommodation for five people, with a double berth in the bow cabin, a drop-down table in the main cabin and quarter berth on the starboard side aft. The galley is located on the starboard, amidships and is equipped with a two-burner stove and a sink. The head is located in the bow cabin on the starboard side.

The design has a hull speed of 5.87 kn.
