About the LEGENDE 1 TON (JEANNEAU)
Thanks to Jack Bush, original owner of the Jeanneau custom one ton 'Legende'.
The Jeanneau Legende 1 Ton is a 40.19 ft fractional sloop designed by Douglas Peterson and built by Jeanneau in 1984. With a displacement of 13500.0 lb and a beam of 12.86 ft, this vessel represents a specific era of French production, though the exact number of hulls built remains unverified in available data.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for experienced coastal cruisers who prioritize performance and handling over heavy bluewater inventory, given its moderate comfort ratio of 20.1 and fractional rig configuration.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 2.16 and a displacement/length ratio of 180.69, the Legende 1 Ton offers moderate offshore stability but lacks the heavy displacement and extreme beam often preferred for serious bluewater passagemaking.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 41 and the Beneteau First 40.7, as they share similar fractional sloop rigs, beam dimensions around 12-13 ft, and target the same performance-oriented coastal cruising market from the mid-1980s.
