If you're looking for the best small sailboats you've come to the right place. All of our family sailboats are designed for fun and not hard-core racing. Any of our boats can be rigged by one person in under 20 minutes.
American Sail got its start in 1976 with the purchase of the Aqua Cat catamaran that has now been in production over 50 years and has been inducted into the National Sailboat Hall of Fame. Over the years, we have grown to offer many more sailboats in our line including a larger version of the Aqua Cat, the Dink line of yacht dinghies, and four daysailers that are the Aqua Finn Daysailer, Pennant Daysailer, American 14.6, and American 18 Daysailer.
Small sailboats are our specialty! We've made fun family sailboats for over 40 years. here

HIGH-TECH PERFORMANCE FROM THE CUTTING EDGE OF RACING INTO THE HANDS OF THE RECREATIONAL SAILORS.
The Oceanis Yacht is the culmination of our Oceanis philosophy where cruising comfort, performance, and customization reign supreme. Her elegant design and luxurious interiors add a new dimension to life at sea with an enormous salon, impressive galley, spacious staterooms, and plenty of ambient light from the many large windows and skylights. Despite her lavish details, our Oceanis Yacht maneuvers like a smaller yacht thanks to a perfectly centered sail plan and twin rudders. She is a yacht that represents the art of sailing at its regal best.
However, some things haven’t changed and never will. Benjamin BENETEAU’s philosophy of building the strongest, safest, most beautiful boats on the water is alive and well. The BENETEAU family’s pride in craftsmanship and passion for performance can easily be recognized in every FIRST, FIGARO, OCEANIS, and OCEANIS YACHT built today. here
Benjamin Beneteau, shipwright, founded the Beneteau boatyard at Croix-de-Vie, France to build sailing trawlers.
In 1964 Annette Beneteau Roux and her brother, Andre, granddaughter and grandson to Benjamin, diversified the company with the introduction of fiberglass sailing yachts. With the introduction of the FLETAN and the GUPPY, Beneteau took part in the 1965 Paris Boat Show for the first time, establishing its reputation for building seaworthy pleasure craft.
The FIRST 30, designed by Andre Mauric and introduced in 1976, was the beginning of Beneteau's very successful First series. It was chosen Boat of the Year at the Paris Boat Show and also won the first leg of the Figaro Single-Handed Race.
In 1990, in response to its expanding North American market, Beneteau opened a production facility in Marion, South Carolina. Within four years, Beneteau became one of the top three sailboat manufacturers in America. Groupe Beneteau subsequently ended its production in this facility in 2020. here
***(In order to simplify things, all the Beneteau models, for which we have adequate information, have been listed under the 'Beneteau' section. Beneteau's were often given different names depending on which part of the world they were sold (and/or built). This, in addition to boats that were sold directly to charter companies which also used their own names.)
Today, (2016) Beneteau is largest builder of sailboats in the world.
