Versatility, seaworthy qualities and original solutions are the strengths of the First 41S5, which is the result of a collaboration between Bénéteau and designer Philippe Starck. Produced in about 350 units from 1989 to 1994, it is offered with three bulb versions: keel with shallow draft fins, long keel in cast iron or in the sportier version in lead. The design of the deckhouse is pleasant, rounded and equipped with numerous skylights. The mast with 9/10 fractional rigging has two rows of quartered spreaders without flying shrouds. The look of the interiors is also curious, thanks to the rounded shapes of the fittings in red mahogany and satin aluminum. Available with two or three cabins.
