Description

Beneteau First 25.7

Star-Born 4 is a great example of this popular performance cruiser. This boat is at home cruising around the coastline with the family or equally for club and local racing. Star-Born 4 has shown this with class wins in Cowes Week & Round the Island Race.

A great feature of this design is that it is trailerable so it can be easily taken to lakes, bays and oceans further afield to easily explore new sailing grounds. Star-Born 4 comes with a 4 Wheel Braked trailer so is set to get exploring (Light use on trailer and trailer never immersed in salt water)
