Description

PRELIMINARY LISTING – MORE PHOTOS & DETAILS TO COME


If you’re looking for a racer/cruiser that has been well-maintained and has a great pedigree, then this is your boat. Overlap is hull #525 of 550 built and is a fine example of this French-built “Boat of the Year” winner. She is first and foremost a racer with a low handicap, top shelf sails and electronics and a great cockpit/deck layout. She also has a cruising interior and is fully equipped with 3 cabins, one head and plenty of tank capacity. Per the Practical Sailor review: “The Farr and Beneteau design teams…have produced a versatile boat that will satisfy club racers and cruisers with a penchant for speed. She’s spacious and nicely finished.” Overlap is in sail away condition, ready to go for the season with fresh bottom paint a recent Awlgrip paint job. Please call broker for private inspection.

Additional Information

From Practical Sailor's Review: "This Bruce Farr-designed speedster performs well in round-the-buoy races, yet its three-cabin interior also makes it a comfortable, seasonal cruiser. The Beneteau First 40.7 put the racer in the racer/cruiser of the early 2000s, earning her chops as a club racer or casual over-nighter. Her sumptuous belowdeck amenities work well with her racing spirit on deck....The boat’s numbers certainly suggest it [has] better-than-average performance compared to its peers in the cruising world....Polar diagrams indicate the potential for speeds of 6-plus knots sailing in 20 knots of breeze within 32 [degrees] of true wind. Predicted boat speed exceeds 12 knots when sailing in [big breeze off wind].
