Design #608 BENETEAU FIRST 40

The deck is carefully designed to promote efficient handling for racing and ample interior volume for comfortable cruising.  The cockpit features removable storage lockers and transom beam.  The very contemporary interior finished in wood, stainless steel, leather and fabrics accommodates three double cabins and two convertible berths in the saloon for exceptional flexibility.

The base configuration for IRC racing includes the 2.45m draft “T” keel and an aluminum rig.  Options include a 1.95m shallow draft keel and a carbon rig.

Farr Yacht Design expects the new Beneteau 40 to be a worthy successor to the 40.7 for both racing excellence and cruising comfort.
