Presenting the benchmark cabin cruiser, reimagined.
Beneteau’s all-new Antares 9 is the modern evolution of a proven coastal cruiser—designed to offer comfort, safety, and versatility for families looking to maximize their time on the water. At 27 feet, this sleek, compact model blends smart interior volume with performance, making her the ideal weekend boat for summer cruising along the East Coast, Gulf, or Great Lakes.
The standout feature of the new Antares 9 is the fully enclosed cabin, offering protection from wind, spray, or sudden changes in weather—an essential for year-round boating or unpredictable hot summer conditions. Large panoramic windows and a sliding sunroof flood the interior with natural light, while two private cabins, a galley, and a convertible dining table allow up to four adults to sleep comfortably aboard. With clever layout upgrades and modular seating, the Antares 9 balances function and relaxation with refined ease.
