The class40 is a 40 feet fast modern sailboat made for offshore racing, solohanded, double-handed or with a crew. It's a relatively easy boat compared to the imocas that requires less efforts, but is still pretty fast. It notably competes in La Route du Rhum, the Transat Jacques Vabres or even the Rolex Fastnet Race. It also has it's own race calendar, such as the Normandy Channel Race, or the Globe 40. The class is ruled by a gauge, that basically determines the lenght (12,19m), the draft (3m) the beam (4,50m) and all the different values to respect to be able to submit a design. The class has been created in 2004 , the goal was to gather the skippers under the same will, to compete together with reasonable budgets, still having different designs. The JL40 is widely inspired by the Lift V2 (Crosscall, Paprec-Arkea, Centrakor, Captain Alternance), with small differences. This yacht, designed by Marc Lombard has won many races and is still giving excellent performances. The most part of te class40's are homeported in Lorient, french brittany. You can eventually find some in La Trinité sur Mer, Concarneau, Port la Forêt, Brest or even Saint Malo. Please note that updates will be done later (UV's, rudder connectors...), feel free to ask on the official discord if you have any questions or requests. Be advised that at the moment UV's are not totally finshed, and as we are currently at the debut of Sailaway 3, some bugs may occur, just report them on the official discord and in the appropriate channel if they concern gameplay, or directly to me if it concerns the boat itself (please use english or french and be descriptive, add pictures if required). |
