What started as a seasonal boat rental company quickly grew into the largest Sunfish, Hobie Cat, and Windsurfing shop in the Northeast, serving a passionate community of sailors and water sports enthusiasts. As the business kept growing, it expanded into major boat sales, becoming a leading BENETEAU dealer by 1989, a relationship that would define its future. In 2007, the company relocated to South Dartmouth, MA, where the Nolans revitalized the historic South Wharf, preserving it as a working waterfront for generations to come. Since the beginning, Cape Yachts has set out with a simple promise: match the right boat to the right family—a commitment that continues to guide every launch, sea trial, and relationship today. ![South Wharf Main Photo](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/hs-fs/hubfs/South%20Wharf%20Main%20Photo.jpg?width=3504&height=2336&name=South%20Wharf%20Main%20Photo.jpg) This year, our own 40th anniversary aligns perfectly with another legend’s milestone: the BENETEAU Oceanis Range -- 40 years young and still redefining modern cruising. For as long as the Oceanis range has inspired sailors to chase adventure on the open seas, Cape Yachts has been helping them cast off, right here in New England. Oceanis at 40: A Range that Shaped Cruising ![40 Y OCEANIS_8 GENERATIONS_PDF.pdf](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/hs-fs/hubfs/40%20Y%20OCEANIS_8%20GENERATIONS_PDF.pdf.png?width=7351&height=3391&name=40%20Y%20OCEANIS_8%20GENERATIONS_PDF.pdf.png) Since 1986, the Oceanis line has balanced comfort, performance, and confidence at sea—continually innovating across eight generations and earning a global following. Today, more than 30,000 Oceanis yachts sail worldwide, a testament to a range that has continually evolved to meet the expectations of sailors and inspire new horizons. The Anniversary Offer & Why Cape Yachts is Your Best Partner ![Customers Sail](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Customers%20Sail.jpg?width=1600&height=1200&name=Customers%20Sail.jpg) To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Oceanis range, BENETEAU is offering an exclusive Oceanis “Icon Edition” promotion: up to 40% off options on select models—Oceanis 30.1, 34.1, 37.1, and 40.1—for all orders placed January 17 through April 30, 2026. This limited‑time anniversary offer makes it easier than ever to tailor your Oceanis with the features, finishes, and performance upgrades that matter most to your time on the water. Why it Matters? Options are where you personalize your Oceanis; sail handling, electronics, comfort packs, and finish choices that make the boat truly yours. Saving up to 40% on those upgrades can meaningfully lower the barrier to owning a BENETEAU brand cruiser that fits your life from day one. And when you’re ready to take advantage of this milestone opportunity, Cape Yachts is uniquely positioned to guide you. As New England’s premier luxury yacht dealership, we bring decades of expertise, a deeply service‑centric approach, and local roots strengthened by a global BENETEAU partnership. Our team’s mission has always been simple: help you choose the right boat (and the right build) for the way you want to live on the water. Come See What Cape Yachts is All About! ![DSC_0437](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Brews%20and%20tunes/Images/DSC_0437.jpg?width=2048&height=1362&name=DSC_0437.jpg) There’s never been a better time to visit Cape Yachts, especially if you’re considering a BENETEAU Oceanis. Our team of sailboat experts is here to help you explore the Oceanis line in depth, talk through customizable options, and secure your boat before the 40% off options deal ends April 30th. We can help you compare models, finalize your wish list, and take the first step toward ownership, all while making sure the process is smooth, informed, and enjoyable. If you prefer to preview models before visiting, we also offer personalized virtual tours. One of our specialists will walk you through layouts, features, performance notes, and ownership considerations—helping you narrow in on the perfect Oceanis for your sailing style. And while you’re planning your visit, consider joining us for our Cape Yachts By Invitation gathering on April 25 & 26. It’s a great opportunity to meet the team, enjoy a relaxed atmosphere, and explore select in‑stock BENETEAU models in person. **RSVP here:** [https://www.capeyachts.com/news/cybi-2026/](https://www.capeyachts.com/news/cybi-2026/)  Topics: [best harbor in massachusetts](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/tag/best-harbor-in-massachusetts), [beneteau boats](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/tag/beneteau-boats), [Boating in New England](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/tag/boating-in-new-england), [beneteau oceanis sailboats](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/tag/beneteau-oceanis-sailboats), [beneteau yachts](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/tag/beneteau-yachts), [boat buying](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/tag/boat-buying), [best yacht brokers](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/tag/best-yacht-brokers), [about cape yachts](https://blog.cape-yachts.com/tag/about-cape-yachts) ## Join Today and Make a Splash!
