Last fall I had the opportunity to watch yacht broker Garth Hichens drive a new Beneteau Sense sideways and then spin the boat 360 degrees within the tight confines of the City Dock in Annapolis. A few days after that, I was out sailing on the Chesapeake Bay aboard another boat and had a chance to go head-to-head against the new Sense 46 and see how well it also does under sail.
Years ago Beneteau pioneered the idea of packing in plenty of accommodation space aft and slipping snug sleeping arrangements into the “tweendeck,” until side-by-side double berth aft cabins became de rigeuer. When I stepped aboard the new Beneteau Sense 46, though, I found not even a pipe berth below the elegantly expansive cockpit. Clearly, in creating the Sense line—which now includes four different models ranging from 43ft to 55ft—Berret Racoupeau Yacht Design and the interior designers at Nauta Design have started with a clean slate and a free hand.
