Santa cruz 40


The Santa cruz 40 is a 40.0ft masthead sloop designed by Bill Lee and built in fiberglass by Santa Cruz Yachts since 1982.

15 units have been built.

The Santa cruz 40 is a light sailboat which is a very high performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a racing boat. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a short water supply range.
