DESCRIPTION
The best value 2001 Schock 40 racer on the market today,
This Shock 40 has spent most of her life fresh water racing on the Great lakes and upon importation to Australia she has been optimised for both Australian conditions and IRC racing with a new sail plan.
2022 Survey available.
The Vessel CBTF configuration was well ahead of its time, allowing her to sail well above her waterline and hull speed, It also also allows the vessel to be sailed competitively comparatively short handed when compared to a Farr 40 OD or similar. Every system has been well thought out and is user friendly making her one on the easiest handling vessels on the course.
The interior of this vessel is comfortable with reasonable sized aft berths and fully enclosed head with electric toilet. Auxiliary power is provided by a centrally mounted 2018 Suzuki 20hp outboard. Having it centrally located means that the weight distribution is centre line and you don't have the hassle of it jumping out the water when motor sailing as you do on similar Auxiliary powered vessels, it can also be fully retracted with a flush hull presentation while sailing. The keel is able to be canted via an electrically driven hydraulic motor which gives this yacht some cutting edge performace over other yachts. She easily out performs Sydney 38's and Farr's of similar sizes.
Sail wardrobe has been provided by North sails and features an as new square head main sail on a reasonably conservative carbon mast. This vessel also presents with a current rigging check.
This vessel also comes with a hydraulic lifting trailer allowing the vessel to be transported between regattas or stored on the hard during maintenance periods.
This vessel has been lovingly cared for during her time in Australia and maintained to the highest standards, so is ready to sail away at a moments notice, Ideally suited to club, twilight and coastal racing don't let this opportunity pass you by!!!
