We have a Bavaria 430 Caribic, 1992 built, but which are not made now. Having looked at several Beneteau's when browsing the market, we are certainly glad we went for the Bavaria. We have the highest stability category, which cannot be said for Beneteau's. I am surprised so many of them have got through the DTI Coding for charter because of this. They probably go faster, but that is because they are like sailing a saucer, not much depth below water. As for fuel consumption, our Volvo 59hp uses 3.5 litres per hour.
I would certainly go for the Bavaria.
Best of luck in whichever you choose.
