First 40 – Jazz
The Beneteau First 40 is a yacht that many would describe as the ultimate racer/cruiser. With its uncluttered deck layout, spacious cockpit and well fitted out interior, the First 40 offers you not just speed but comfort.
The First 40 has proved itself over the years but notching up impressive race results and is a firm favourite for those looking to charter. Great for novice crews but also a very popular boat with the more experienced teams looking to push for silverware
The hull, rig and appendages were configured to achieve the best performance versus handicap for racing under IRC. These specific IRC-oriented design features include an undistorted hull shape with powerful ends to quickly maximize sailing length when heeled; a large, non-overlapping headsail rig and a “T” keel for high stability and low drag. The rig also includes large masthead spinnakers for excellent downwind performance.
