As the range entry model, the Oceanis 31 bears a strong family resemblance to its sisters, combining elegance with ingenuity for maximum cruising pleasure. In addition to a keel boat version, there is a lested lifting keel and twin-rudder version.
The Océanis 31 was elected European Yacht of the Year in the Family Cruiser class in 2009

Groupe Finot created a hull with a fine entry and beam carried well aft; its larger siblings have all been enjoyable sailers, and the 31 didn’t disappoint. The interior, meanwhile, benefits from the straight-lined and elegant thinking of Nauta Design. There are no curved settees and whimsical doodads on this cruiser. Instead, purposeful and comfortable seats on either side of a drop-leaf table can, with the addition of lee cloths, double as sea berths or places to stash little crewmembers once the spacious athwartships aft-cabin berth and V-berth have been filled.
