With Barracuda, discover a new way of enjoying cruising and the “fishing” sprit: a true trend-setter, firm choices have been made:

The choice of the outboard engine for quick travel to fishing sites. The choice of a wheelhouse and a simple central console for greater comfort. And the choice of a modular boat depending on fishing habits and practices.

Thought up, designed and developed, taking into consideration brand values: seafaring qualities, design, safety and innovation.

Rapidity, performance, safety and design. These key words class the Barracuda among the boats for sea adventurers, keen on well mastered power.

 

[quote] Beneteau just launched the Barracuda 9, an entirely new model aimed at providing a unique blend of a safe offshore fishing boat coupled with a roomy and well equipped cruising boat.  Built around the patented Air Step hull, the Barracuda 9 was designed to handle snotty conditions that the offshore fisherman or cruiser tends to find themselves in, and still get them back safely and comfortably.  All while providing a fully enclosed wheelhouse and salon.

The Barracuda 9 was designed for either single or twin outboard engine installations. Customers can choose from various brand and power configurations, but Beneteau recommends the following: single 300- or 350-hp; twin 150-, 200- or 225-hp.
