My impressions during the visit:
Boarding is easy and safe - ideal for families or loading gear. Once inside, the natural light from the large windows immediately creates a bright and welcoming atmosphere.

The saloon is spacious and functional, perfect for dining or relaxing with friends, and can easily convert into an extra berth. The main cabin is comfortable, with clever storage solutions, and there’s a dedicated shower room with toilet, offering real autonomy onboard.

In addition to the aft deck, the flybridge features a large sunpad with stunning 360° views, perfect for sunbathing or relaxing at anchor.

This versatile boat is ideal for cruising, day trips, or fishing, with its seaworthy hull and economical 230hp Volvo Penta diesel engine which appears well-maintained.

A real favourite - comfortable, bright, seaworthy, and fully equipped for extended enjoyment on the water.

Broker's Comments

Bénéteau Antares 9 Fly (2003) for sale – Volvo Diesel 230hp

This Bénéteau Antares 9 Fly from 2003 is a fantastic example of a well-kept motor cruiser that combines reliability, comfort, and low air draft. Powered by a Volvo Penta KAMD43 230hp diesel engine with just 900 hours, the boat is in immaculate condition and has been meticulously maintained.

Its flybridge is designed exclusively for sunbathing, with no upper helm station, giving it a low profile that is ideal for navigating under river bridges on inland waterways. This configuration also allows easy passage under swing bridges in marinas, such as Saint-Cyprien.

Currently moored in a freshwater marina, the boat enjoys optimal hull and engine preservation. With its spacious cockpit and cozy interior, it’s perfect for coastal cruising, canal navigation, or family outings.
