EU VAT paid. Excellent condition. This beautifully maintained 2019 Beneteau Gran Turismo 40 presents a fantastic opportunity to acquire one of Beneteau’s most acclaimed sport cruisers. Designed by the acclaimed Nuvolari & Lenard studio with interiors by Andreani Design, the Beneteau Gran Turismo 40 is one of the most stylish and versatile sport cruisers in her class, a boat that delivers genuine planing performance without compromising on comfort or refinement. At 12.67m LOA with a 3.86m beam and 1.93m cabin headroom, she carries her lines beautifully and presents with a boldness at anchor that belies her manageable footprint. STELLA is a well-maintained 2019 example in excellent condition, EU VAT paid and available for immediate purchase. Twin Volvo Penta Dhp stern-drive engines deliver a combined 600hp, propelling her to an exhilarating planing performance thanks in part to Beneteau's patented Air Step® hull technology, which reduces drag and improves both acceleration and fuel efficiency at speed. With approximately 1,050 hours on each engine, she has plenty of life left and is mechanically in good order. The cockpit is an outstanding social space: a large U-shaped settee convertible to a sun pad, a solid wood table, cockpit galley with sink, Fusion audio system with cockpit speakers, and an electric opening sunroof in the hard-top all make her as pleasurable at anchor as she is underway. Below, a forward owner's cabin with panoramic windows, an aft twin guest cabin, a spacious midships heads with separate shower, and a well-appointed saloon and galley complete a very comfortable picture.

The GT40's combination of sporty styling, Air Step® performance, and surprisingly generous accommodation makes her one of the most rounded sport cruisers at this size, and examples in this condition with full VAT paid are increasingly hard to find at this price point.
