Snowmane is a 1990 Beneteau Oceanis 500 in good condition.
The current, third owners have cruised with their family for a year, starting in Greece. In 2024 the new owners completed upgrades to meet or exceed the safety requirements to participate in the ARC (Atlantic Rally for Cruisers).
Snowmane is powered by a Perkins diesel engine and has a shallow enough draft to cruise the popular spots in the Bahamas. She has a bow thruster, refrigeration, and modern navigation electronics. She has five private staterooms, one forward crew cabin and four in the main cabin; each cabin has a head.
She has always been privately owned, and the previous owners owned her for 20 years. Snowmane has just arrived from a year-long cruise across the Atlantic through the Caribbean and the Bahamas and lies, ready to continue, in Norfolk, VA. She is priced for quick sale well below market value prior to her 2024 upgrades.
