“ORIA” is a USCG Documented Beneteau 40 that is well-equipped, meticulously maintained, and in excellent condition.
** Yacht Brokers representing Buyers will be protected by the seller/owner for this transaction.
This model has the standard keel and upgraded 54hp Yanmar engine (meter reads 667 hours), with the single large aft cabin (true queen size bed) and huge port cockpit locker for storage (great for inflatable dinghy, life raft, with plenty of room for much more gear).
She has received over $30K of recent upgrades by the current owner for extended offshore cruising.
All exterior teak has been finished with CETOL.
All interior cushions and upholstery in “like new” condition.
Most items on the equipment list have been installed within the last 18 months.
The hull bottom, keel, and rudder are in excellent condition with Interlux Epoxy Barrier Coat and Micron CSC Bottom Paint (applied March, 2023)
“ORIA” shows no evidence of ever being grounded hard. The structural grid bonding to the hull and the keel attachment bolting system appears as good as new.
She is well-equipped for long distance voyages, and extended cruising with important features such as Radar, AIS Navigation, Autopilot with Wireless Remote, 350W of Solar on the Bimini, Custom Lee Cloth on Port Settee, full compliment of spare parts, 4-Man Offshore Life Raft, EPIRB, Inflatable Dinghy with Outboard, extra propane tank, and much more.

Please note that I am expecting two parts from Beneteau that should arrive between now and February. These are the acrylic skylight in the main cabin and the acrylic window on the starboard side. The skylight has a leak and the window has a vertical crack (but is still serviceable). The new skylight and window will be provided with the boat and installation will be the responsibility of the buyer.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
