BENETEAU FIRST 40
The Farr-designed First 40 is the follow-up to Beneteau’s highly successful First 40.7,.The hull shape is beamier, lower and sleeker than the 40.7’s. It is also a foot longer than the 40.7 with 25 percent more righting moment, thanks to a number of new build technologies that have lowered the center of gravity and reduced the overall hull weight. The cockpit is excellent. The interior finish is very nice and the production techniques for the wood joinery present a uniformly high quality appearance throughout the boat. The layout below decks is similar to the 40.7, with the head forward, creating an ensuite cabin arrangement in the bow. The V-berth is 6ft 8in long and about 2ft at its narrowest.
The light oak veneer creates an airy, contemporary ambience. The nav station has lots of flat surface area and easy access for mounting instruments. The twin aft cabins are spacious, with 6ft of headroom, hanging lockers and decent sized berths measuring 6ft 6in long with a good 5ft at their maximum width. The saloon is accommodating and pleasant; the atmosphere is ideal for evening meals while cruising or relaxing after a race.
