Design

The Hallberg-Rassy 40 is a recreational centre-cockpit keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder on a partial skeg controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel with lead ballast. It displaces 22,100 lb (10,024 kg).[1]

The boat has a draft of 6.53 ft (1.99 m) with the standard keel fitted and mounts a inboard diesel engine.[1]
