Defined by its balanced performance and interior volume, this 2001 Jeanneau Sun Fast 40 is a refined option for sailors seeking a capable vessel. The yacht features a durable fiberglass hull finished in blue Awlgrip paint applied in 2016. The deck setup is optimized for control and ease of handling, featuring Harken deck equipment, a hydraulic backstay tensioner, and a combination of five manual winches alongside one electric winch for halyards. The standing rigging and shrouds were replaced in 2018, and the current sail inventory includes a fully battened mainsail on tracks, Pentex mainsail and genoa, as well as a Code Zero, gennaker, and staysail on furlers.
Accommodation on board includes three cabins and two baths, making it well-suited for extended cruising or social sailing. The interior is kept comfortable throughout the seasons thanks to a Webasto heating system installed in 2018. The boat also features a high level of autonomy with a Shenker Zen 30 l/h watermaker, seven AGM batteries replaced in 2022, and a Victron 45 Ampere battery charger updated in 2025. Monitoring is simplified by a Kennex Marine battery system, and the electrical integrity is supported by a galvanic isolator and stainless steel 316 through-hull fittings replaced in 2019.
On-deck comfort is enhanced by teak decking installed in 2018 and exterior cushions replaced in 2022. Maneuvering in tight spaces is aided by a bow thruster installed in 2016. Practical features include a foldable three-part aluminum gangway for both bow and stern, a 2022 bowsprit, and dedicated cockpit eyebolts for safety harnesses. The engine has been maintained regularly, with updated injectors and alternator, showing approximately 2,800 hours of use as of March 2026.
