Helix

Silver Fleet
Beneteau Oceanis 30.1

Helix is a Beneteau Oceanis 30.1 in our Sausalito Silver Plus Fleet. With a stemhead, hard-chine hull, and eye-catching profile, the Oceanis 30.1 presents like a scaled-down cruising yacht. A slender bow, balanced weight, and dual rudders deliver agile handling and performance on all points of sail. She carries a traditional mainsail with stackpack and lazy jacks, dual helms, and all lines lead aft for easy handling. A spacious cockpit accommodates up to 6 sailors comfortably on day sails.

Below deck, headroom is 6.5 feet in all areas where it is possible to stand. To port at the base of the companionway, an L-shaped galley offers storage, a 20 US gallon refrigerator, and a two-burner stove and oven. The large head is divided into a marine toilet on one side and a shower and washbasin on the other. Open entryways and lengthwise berths give Helix's two double cabins a spacious feel. The cabins can comfortably sleep 4 overnight and the benches in the salon provide extra sleeping space for 2 more. 

Reserve Helix for a day sail or multi-day charter and find out for yourself why the American sailing magazines Cruising World and Sail Magazine have both named the Oceanis 30.1 Best Boat of the Year!

    I love sailing in the San Francisco Bay and greatly appreciate everything that MSC has to offer, the classes, clinics, club sails, racing and charters. I enjoy our supportive sailing community and use every opportunity to spend time on the water. After obtaining the certifications from MSC I did my first charter in Croatia in 2022 with my family. It was amazing and we’re looking forward to returning soon!

    The class was terrific. I know you must get many compliments about your sailing instructors...But I must tell you that Robert is outstanding. Having taught SCUBA, I really appreciate the way he is so sensitive to all on board, dealing with each so well, knowing quickly their strengths and weaknesses making each feel special and cared for.

    It has been wonderful sailing with MSC over the years. Please extend my thanks to the owners, management, and staff for unrequited professionalism and high standards in a charter fleet. I have sailed with several in my years and none nearly hold a candle to the quality of business and staff at Modern Sailing.

    Captain Jeff Cathers is really cool. I had such a great time on the Farallones Day Trip. It was actually my very best day of 2020. Thank you so much for coordinating the trip.

    The meeting room was quite adequate and the location most convenient, but the course outline and instruction were outstanding. Modern Sailing is fortunate to have such a well organized instructor in Mr. Stan Lander who teaches very well from a rich professional background. Mr. Lander was generous with his time and patiently in helping students who needed more attention or time in understanding various aspects of the curriculum.
