Beneteau gran tourismo 40ft

[TonyF]

Anyone got one or know someone that has ? Thinking of purchasing one and would like some feedback on ownership if possible before I go any further.
Thanks.

Sadly not got one - I wish! But I seem to recall Motor Boat & Yachting magazine testing one recently, might be worth a read.

Just found the video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVSvH7DBB38

Looks good value.

Not the Beneteau, but I’ve got a Jeanneau Leader 36 demonstrator, which is a very similar boat. I’ve also spent quite a bit of time on the Leader 40. Feel free to fire any questions my way. You’re welcome to look round my Leader 36 (it’s in Lymington). I don’t currently have a Leader 40 here though.

I know its predecessor the 38 well, have cruise with friends that have them. Very cleaver boat, much better priced than competitor boats. Easy handling in confined quarters, good space and comfortable ride. If you want a chat let me know.
