Best for:

This boat suits coastal cruisers and light offshore sailors who prioritize a comfortable motion, indicated by a Comfort ratio of 11.03, and appreciate the performance potential of a high SA/D ratio of 42.08.

Bluewater capability:

While the low Capsize ratio of 2.72 and moderate D/L ratio of 71.72 suggest reasonable stability for offshore passages, the single build year and limited fleet size warrant caution regarding long-term structural integrity and parts availability for serious bluewater expeditions.

Comparables:

Comparable boats include other late-2000s European fractional sloops with similar displacement and beam dimensions, such as the Beneteau First 40.7 or the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 40.9, which share the same emphasis on performance cruising and fractional rigging.
