Fc 40
8 / 28 - score 53%
The Fc 40 is a 40.0ft masthead sloop designed by German Frers and built in fiberglass since 1987.
The Fc 40 is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is an excellent water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
