2015 Beneteau 49 Gran Turismo

BENETEAU GRAN TURISMO 49 - $449,900

EXCELLENT CONDITION 

 Magic Carpet has been boat house moored and shows pride of ownership throughout.This Beneteau Gran Turismo 49 is a thoughtfully engineered express cruiser that delivers performance, comfort, and a modern European design. Well-suited for Pacific Northwest cruising and beyond, this model offers intuitive handling, generous living spaces, and features typically found on much larger yachts.

Powered by twin Volvo Penta IPS pod drives, the Gran Turismo 49 provides smooth, efficient cruising with excellent visibility and control from the helm. Joystick docking including a bow thruster and Dynamic Positioning simplify close-quarters maneuvering and allow confident operation for owner-operators and cruising couples alike.

The main deck is designed around social interaction and visibility, with seamless flow between the helm, cockpit, and salon. Large windows and an opening sunroof flood the space with natural light, creating an open, airy environment underway or at rest. The cockpit offers comfortable seating and dining space, making it ideal for entertaining or relaxing at anchor.

Below deck, the two-stateroom, two-head layout is well suited for extended stays aboard. The midship master stateroom features generous storage and private en-suite access, while the guest stateroom provides comfortable accommodations for friends or family. The galley is well equipped with ample counter space and storage, supporting longer cruising without compromise.

Additional highlights include a hydraulic swim platform, tender garage, climate control systems for all-season cruising, onboard generator, and a well-integrated navigation and electronics suite.  

BENEFITS OF AN INTEGRATED TENDER GARAGE

Clean, uncluttered deck spaces
Storing the tender in the garage keeps the swim platform, cockpit, and foredeck clear, preserving the yacht’s clean lines and maximizing usable outdoor living areas for entertaining and relaxing.  Large enough for a 9 foot dinghy with it's engine in place. 

Improved safety underway
A tender secured inside the hull is protected from shifting or movement in rough conditions, reducing the risk of damage or accidents compared to deck-mounted or davit-stored tenders.

Enhanced performance and balance
Keeping the tender low and aft improves weight distribution and lowers the vessel’s center of gravity, contributing to better handling, stability, and ride quality—especially at speed or in following seas.

Protection from weather and UV exposure
Garage storage shields the tender and outboard from sun, salt, and spray, extending their lifespan and maintaining appearance while reducing maintenance costs.

Quick, convenient water access
An aft garage allows for fast, effortless launch and retrieval, making spontaneous shore excursions or swimming stops easier without the need for complex rigging or deck preparation.

Greater privacy and aesthetics
With the tender hidden from view, the yacht maintains a refined, yacht-finished appearance rather than a “loaded” look common with deck-stored tenders.

Added security
A lockable garage helps protect the tender and equipment when docked or moored, offering peace of mind in busy marinas or unfamiliar ports.

Multi-use storage capability
Beyond the tender, the garage provides valuable space for water toys, dive gear, fenders, and cruising equipment—keeping the interior and decks organized and clutter-free.

BENEFITS OF A HYDRONIC HEATING SYSTEM (Webasto)

✔ Consistent warmth throughout the yacht — heat is delivered evenly to individual areas, reducing temperature swings and eliminating drafty or cold zones.

✔ Exceptionally quiet performance — the system operates with minimal fan noise, creating a noticeably calmer onboard environment compared to traditional forced-air heating.

✔ Efficient, self-contained operation — diesel-fired heating allows comfortable cruising and anchoring without reliance on shore power or continuous generator use.

✔ Dual-purpose capability — when integrated into the onboard plumbing, the system can also supply domestic hot water for showers and sinks.

The Beneteau Gran Turismo 49 represents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a refined express cruiser that balances performance, livability, and ease of ownership.

WHY CHOOSE THE COUPE GT49

Low, athletic profile with confident stability
The coupe design sits closer to the water, reducing wind resistance and lowering the boat’s center of mass. The result is a more planted feel underway, improved balance in breezy conditions, and a smoother, more predictable ride when cruising exposed waters.

Calmer, more sheltered onboard environment
With the hardtop seamlessly enclosing the cockpit and helm, the GT49 Coupe creates a unified living space that is noticeably quieter and better protected from the elements than an open flybridge layout. This design enhances comfort at speed and extends usability in changing weather.

Simplified marina life and ownership
The reduced overall height allows for easier bridge clearance and broader marina access, while also simplifying storage and lifting options. Eliminating a flybridge means fewer exterior components to maintain—less canvas, fewer exposed electronics, and lower long-term upkeep.

Timeless, performance-driven styling
The coupe’s clean roofline and streamlined silhouette deliver a modern, purposeful look that emphasizes motion and sophistication. Many owners favor this design for its understated elegance and enduring appeal.

Enhanced efficiency and handling balance
By removing the additional structure and equipment associated with a flybridge, the vessel benefits from reduced weight aloft. This improves overall efficiency, minimizes wind influence, and contributes to sharper handling and a more responsive helm feel.

WHY THE COUPE EXCELS

This Coupe delivers the thrill and responsiveness of a true sport cruiser while maintaining the comfort and functionality expected of a well-appointed mid-cabin yacht.  It's streamlined profile enhances both aesthetics and marina accessibility, while the enclosed hardtop creates a noticeably quieter, drier and more comfortable environment than a flybridge configuration. Designed for confident performance, the hull offers engaging handling and reassuring stability, making this an exceptional choice for owners who value driving pleasure, sophisticated indoor-outdoor living, and reduced height, weight, and upkeep compared to a flybridge yacht.
