Beneteau First 40

2012 Beneteau First 40 Performance - Kaimai Express

An exceptional example of the highly regarded Beneteau First 40 Performance, Kaimai Express is a NZ-new, two-owner cruiser/racer presented in outstanding condition with serious performance upgrades. Designed by Bruce Farr, the First 40 is known for its fast, balanced offshore capability while still delivering genuine comfort for cruising. This is a boat that rewards you when you push it, yet remains easy and predictable to sail short-handed.

This particular vessel has had a significant rig upgrade, taking an already capable platform to the next level. A new carbon mast and boom (Oct 2024), paired with new rod rigging, transforms the sailing experience--stiffer, lighter, and more responsive across the wind range.

Below deck, she offers practical cruising comfort with a well-laid-out interior, making her just as suited to weekends away or coastal passages as she is to lining up on the start line.

Key Features:
- New carbon mast - Oct 2024
- carbon boom installed oct 2024
- New rod rigging - 2024 (by NZ Rigging)
- Deep performance keel for enhanced stability and upwind ability
- Strong sail wardrobe ready to race or cruise
- NZ-new, two-owner vessel

Meticulously maintained and presented -Kaimai Express is a rare opportunity to secure a proven performer with all the right upgrades already done. Turn-key and ready to go for the upcoming season.
