Rio

 S.V Rio, is a 43 foot, Beneteau Cyclades Sailing Sloop

S.V Rio has 3 cabins and 3 private heads (bathroom).

The 43 is also known as the Mooring 44.3 and one of the finest charter boats around. The Cyclades 43 is a Berret and Racoupeau design. The Cyclades 43 has the classic French style sloping coachroof paired with a horizontal stripe along the sides.  Beneteau Yachts built them in Vendee, France.

The mainsail is large and combines with a small fractionally rigged headsail on this true sloop.

Upwind the Beneteau Cyclades with her large main and small jib, she races 7 knots while exceeds 8 knots downwind.

 

The headsail on this sloop sheets inside the shrouds and is limited downwind. This makes little difference for shorthanding as the large main is easier to control and you just forget about much of a headsail.

She was built in France, in 2005, and has seen what most sailboats dream of seeing. Rio is a (1 mast) sailing sloop and has enough room to comfortably sleep 6 people.

The engine is a Yanmar 56 HP with excellent access via both the aft cabins and the companionway.
