Swift 40
16 / 66 - score 58%
The Swift 40 is a 39.12ft masthead ketch designed by Sparkman & Stephens and built in fiberglass by Kang Nam Shipbuilders (KOR) between 1979 and 1984.
The Swift 40 is a heavy sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is stable / stiff and has a good righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is average. There is a good water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
