As Easy to Operate as a 30 Footer

This new Doug Zurn design is the easiest to handle and most fuel-efficient passagemaker of its size. Boarding through side-opening doors onto the same level as floating docks or a dinghy, couldn’t be easier. For all-weather versatility, the pilothouse features roll-up curtains, fully-opening windshields and air conditioning. The spacious, two-cabin layout below and comfortable on-deck seating compare favorable to much larger yachts.

Computerized Joystick Control

The magic of the 40z single joystick control for low-speed maneuvering amazes the best of professional captains. Twin 370-HP diesel sterndrives are independently operated by computer for direction, forward-reverse gear and rpm. Sterndrives have 3 bid advantages: They kick-up on impact… or for clearing of props… and for shoal draft operation.

Unsurpassed Fuel Efficiency

Your fuel bill will be halved thanks to very strong but light, pre-preg epoxy/Kevlar/Eglasss/Corecell construction. The 40z provides 21 gallons per hour at 25 knots, or 1.2 nautical miles per gallon with optional twin 370 hp Volvo D6 diesels and IPS DuoProp 500 drives. By way of comparison: Power & Motor Yacht Magazine boat tests show the Sea Ray Sundancer 40 consumes 29 gph (.86 nmpg) at that speed, while a Cabo 40 or East Bay 45 consumes 37 gph (.68 nmpg). At $3/gal, that’s $1,110 on a 10-hour trip instead of the 40z's $630. Close to home, you’ll average 4-6 gallons per hour on fill-up… just $15 per hour of general use. That's quite remarkable for a powerboat of this size. The 40z carries 350 US Gallons of fuel.
