Broker's Comments

The ever-popular custom-built Admiral 40 was built by Admiral Yachts in Cape Town, South Africa, who manufacture luxury bluewater catamarans

The Admiral 40 is perfect for short-handed sailing and provides excellent sailing performance and comfortable live-aboard experience, she offers added spacious live-aboard elegance. The enhanced features included on this fine vessel are - a redesigned helm station allowing for ease of short-handed sailing, a new davit platform, moulded bimini ceiling, redesigned heads, more spacious forward and aft cabins, more locker space, extended saloon seating and a larger sliding door opening.

Cruising World reviewed the Admiral 40 in their June 2008 edition of the magazine and wrote highly of her again in June 2009.
