Broker's Comments

The O'Day 40 is a development of the Sun Fizz 40, which was licensed by Jeanneau and developed into the O'Day 39 for production in the US. C. Raymond Hunt Associates then took Briand's design and further developed it into the O'Day 40, with the addition of a suger-scoop transom and a revised interior.

The boat has sleeping accommodation for up to seven people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin, a large U-shaped settee around a drop-down table and a straight settee in the main cabin and an aft cabin on the starboard side with a double berth. The galley is located on the port side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley has a "U"-shape and is equipped with a two-burner stove, an ice box and a double sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the starboard side. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the port side and includes a shower.

This example has only been with its currents owners for a short time. Due to work commitments their plans have changed, but it is clearly visible that pervious owners have cared for the boat and kept on top of the maintenance.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
