Antares 8.80 - greater interior space from Bénéteau

The 8.80 m long Antares 8.80, a new boat from France, is intended for outboard motorisation with a maximum of 2 x 150 hp. Not needing an engine compartment, the saved space is exploited for greater interior space – which is enormous in this class.

Air cushion effect for a comfortable ride
In the saloon with its full-scale galley, the table seats up to six. The two cabins each sleep two. The top speed is about 30 kn, depending on the engine. The AIR STEP at the stern is designed to enhance exploitation of speed potential. Thanks to its air cushion effect, guests enjoy a comfortable ride and stay cool on curvy passages. Large windows and a double sliding roof over the interior helm provide magnificent views. Relaxation is provided by the optional sun lounger on the foredeck. Convenient access to the water comes in the form of two bathing platforms at the stern, one of which has a bathing ladder.
