Fast 40
Description
The Fast 40 was a very interesting ultralight boat at 40' only displacing 4100 lb. The drop keel allowed it to only draw 3.5' of water when up then 7.5 when down which made slip space a bit easier to find. It had a short production run from 1982 to 1983 and only 18 boats were built.

Sailrite does its best to publish accurate dimensions, but we often find it worthwhile to have our customers measure their boats carefully before we produce kits for them.
