Overview

ELVIS, Ker 40+ hull #5 is a full grand prix racer, which has been raced and optimized in the UK and been a top competitor in the FAST 40 Circuit.
Crucially this team and owner did not push the boat too deep into the FAST 40 rule, so she retains a lot of coastal and offshore potential, as well as some consideration for ORCi.

This immaculately prepared boat wants for nothing and is without question one of the most competitive 40 footers on the market today.
