Hull
The Oceanis
523 is a wide boat with a good hull stability.
The keel is moderately deep.
Two possibilities for the draft : 2;30
m and 1,80 m.
The center of gravity is placed very low.
This gives a stable boat, with a good
balance under heel and a good steering control

Rigging
The generous
sail area give good performance even in light air.
The majority
of handling operations is brought back to the cockpit.

Deck design
The deck is
very clear.
A large aft
platform allows to bath, to go up and down to the dinghy easily.
The life raft is stored under this bathing platform and can be out
easily.

The
helmsman’s cockpit is well separated, with the genoa manoeuvres
at hand.
2 steering wheels.
The main cockpit is wide with a folding table around which the crew
can easily sit down to take a meal.
It can be protected by a sprayhood above the companionway and a
bimini for the sun.

523 was entirely designed in 3D CAD, some of its moulds have been
CNC milled.
The boat is built out of fibreglass reinforced polyester, stiffened

P .Forgia
|
| The
Océanis 523 is the result of our common experience
with Bénéteau, a positive collaboration of many
years : It revives in a larger boat the sailing qualities,
reliability, and comfort that we were able to give to the
411 and the 473. |
