Already berthed in stunning Rebak Marina, Langkawi, right on the edge of the Andaman Sea, this Beneteau Oceanis 440 is no stranger to these tropical waters. She is actually called a Beneteau 444, because she is a 440, but with 4 double cabins! Perfect for family and friends!
Babar has been in Malaysia for over 10 years. Her current owner has just completed extensive upgrades and maintenance on her, inclusive of ( in the last 2 years)
* A new Main Sail and head sail
* New rigging ( 2017)
* New electronics
* New fridge compressors.
* The hull, (2023) was completely stripped back and epoxy resined, and antifouled.
* New Wind Generator
* New House batteries and starter battery ( late 2022)
​
She has just returned from another cruising season in Thailand, with her owners, who are now finding that getting across to Malaysia, and juggling work and family, are not allowing them enough time onboard. They want to see Babar loved and used.
