The Beneteau Oceanis 41.1 is all about the cockpit. Two seats are separated by an enormous drop-leaf table with an optional fridge in one end and a removable cockpit light in the other. When one guest cabin is chosen below, the port cockpit settee opens up to reveal cavernous storage space for everything from fenders and lines to a place for optional equipment installations. When it comes to the layout options, the greatest improvement over the Oceanis 41 was made in the master stateroom forward, which gained space as the mast moved aft with the compression post now cutting through the saloon table. Double doors provide privacy to the cabin, nevertheless, since this boat is perfect for couples, if one is abroad alone, the doors can be kept open, making the boat feel longer and more spacious.
