Pacific Seacraft 40'

Outwardly the Pacific Seacraft 40' closely resembles its larger and smaller sisters, but in fact each model in the line incorporates modification to the shape and refinements aimed mostly at improved performance and safety.

The 40' retains the general from of split underbody with ventral fin between keel and large skeg. As before the primary aim throughout is easy of control by a small crew in bad conditions. My own belief is that one should not travel only to arrive: the passage itself should be relaxing and fun. We formed the underbody for this purpose and we have had numererous reports from other boats in the line of surfing down waves in heavy weather at speed/length ratios of over 2 with easy control.

I also believe that speed on passage is quite different from speed round the bouys, and that a small crew should be able to sail an offshore cruiser to it's full potential without exhaustions.

We could not add to that! Here she is "FIRST LIGHT", the only FULLY FRESH WATER Pacific Seacraft 40' in the world. This vessel shows new!

Come see what a truely fresh water vessel that has been immpeccably cared for looks like. Be prepared to fall in love with this magnificent offshore/coastal cruiser that is so liveable & easy for a couple to handle from her cutter rig, 2010 boom furling main system, and cruising amenities that one must see to appreciate.
