About the CAMBRIA 40 CB
The Cambria 40 CB is a heavy-displacement cruising sloop designed by David Walters and built by Cabo Rico Custom Yachts, Inc. in 1984. With a displacement of 26000.0 lb and a comfort ratio of 40.61, this vessel is engineered for stability and seakeeping rather than high-speed performance.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for experienced coastal cruisers and those seeking a stable, comfortable platform for short-to-medium offshore passages who prioritize motion comfort over speed.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 1.66 and a full/long keel configuration, the Cambria 40 CB demonstrates strong inherent stability and directional tracking suitable for protected offshore cruising.
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels include other heavy-displacement trawler-style yachts from the 1980s, such as the Cape Dory 36 or Island Packet 38, which share similar full keels and high displacement-to-length ratios.
