Damien 40
12 / 59 - score 58%
The Damien 40 is a 40.68ft cutter or ketch designed by Joubert - Nivelt and built in fiberglass by Divers Français between 1977 and 1982.
It accomodates 8 people in 4 cabins plus salon.
The Damien 40 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is reasonably 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.
