First 53 is a modern, fast, sporty, and comfortable sailing yacht that will captivate you with its striking and racy shape, sleek design, and ample space. This Benneteau yacht embodies the renaissance of the legendary First name, featuring a well-balanced hull, a sensationally responsive helm, a free-flowing deck plan, and a truly avant-garde interior.

Exterior

The First 53 is a masterful blend of style and power, an ocean-racing thoroughbred disguised in a sleek, stylish figure. The gentle reverse sheer and low-slung coachroof make it appear fast even when at rest. The cockpit and deck layout of First 53 are both free-flowing, cleverly arranged, and exceedingly elegant, ensuring comfort and safety without compromise. The performance mast, high-end deck gear, and finely tuned hull deliver unparalleled thrills in all sailing conditions, whether you're enjoying a double-handed sunset run or a fully crewed offshore race.
The equipment of First 53 includes a classic mainsail, electric winches, a generator, a bimini, and a bow thruster. The deck and cockpit are finished in teak for a luxurious touch.

Interior

The modern, almost minimalist interior of the First 53 offers a completely reimagined living space, prioritizing practicality, comfort, and style. To starboard, a dedicated home-style couch provides a relaxing spot to lounge, while to port, the extendable dinner table seats up to six guests without taking up too much space in the salon. The polished, molded woods contrast pleasantly with the lacquered white bulkheads, creating a bright and warm atmosphere.
This Benneteau yacht offers ample storage space throughout and features a three-cabin, three-head configuration. The highly customizable L-shape galley is user-friendly, both at sea and at anchor. Well-placed hatches and windows ensure excellent ventilation and natural light throughout the interior.
The fully equipped galley includes a microwave, dishwasher, freezer, coffee machine, and fridge. Other features include a flat-screen TV, heating, air conditioning, an audio system, and outside speakers. The First 53 accommodates up to six guests in three well-appointed cabins and features a separate front bow cabin for the skipper.

First 53 is available for charter in Croatia, with Split serving as its Homeport.

Water toys

FAQ

The best time is stretched from spring to autumn. In Croatia, the pre-season starts with Easter and lasts until the beginning of July. The weather is changeable with sea temperatures up to 23. The days are long and there are no big crowds at the anchorages and marinas. July and August are considered the peak of the season. The sea is warm with air temperatures higher than 30. It's pretty busy at sea, in bays and marinas. Guests who like crushes and night parties consider this an ideal period for a cruising vacation. September and October are ideal months for all lovers of romantic moments. The weather is still pleasant and warm, although the days are shorter. Prices in this period are lower and on islands there are no big jams - just like in the spring pre-season.

In case you have special wishes regarding the cruise itinerary, be sure to consult your charter broker. Namely, the cruising route primarily depends on the weather conditions, the speed of your yacht and the available berths in the marinas. Please note that the yacht's flag may restrict entry to some countries and that some countries require a visa when entering.

A tip for the crew is not mandatory, but it is common to leave 5-15% of the total charter fee. It depends completely on the level of your satisfaction. It is customary to leave the tip to the captain who will distribute it among the entire crew.

The yacht rental price always refers to a period of 7 days. The basic price of renting a luxury yacht includes the hire of the yacht, yacht's insurance and crew service. An additional cost is VAT of 13%, and the supplies, fuel, marina fees and all extra services, and are always covered by the APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) which is usually 40% of the charter fee. Delivery/return fees may also apply if the charter week does not start/end from the home port. The crew will take care that your every wish is realized, also based on the pre-filled Preference List.

Just call us :) You should first define the boundaries of your needs and budget. The most important is to determine the number of guests you need to accommodate because it dictates the size and number of cabins. You need to pay attention to the configuration of the cabins, double or twin, and also take care of the sizes of double beds. In general, yachts offer personalized service of high level, but the quality of service is related to number of crew. Based on prefilled preference list, we will make sure that your wishes are carefully executed. Finally, choose the period which suits you the best to make your yachting dreams come true.
