McConaghy Boats appoints Ancasta as UK and Ireland Dealer

McConaghy Boats has appointed Ancasta International Boats Sales as the dealer for UK and Ireland. McConaghy’s are arguably the world leading race boat manufacturer. They are seen as the standard setters for exquisite composite construction. Their list of achievements within racing yacht construction is unrivalled and Ancasta Group is delighted with this new partnership. The initial focus of this new partnership is on the Ker 40; the Jason Ker Designed IRC racer. In addition to the Ker 40, Ancasta will also be promoting the McConaghy 38; an out and out lunatic machine that conforms to no rules and just goes fast upwind and downwind! The Ker 40 is anticipated as being the next big step in IRC racing. It performs beautifully upwind whilst being exhilarating downwind. This fusion of TP52 inspired performance mixed with an ability to compete under IRC rating is a combination that offers something unique at a price which is very inclusive. Nick Griffith MD of Ancasta commented: “We are all very excited about the Ker 40, the challenge under IRC has always been to produce a competitive boat under 50’ that is also exciting to sail. I have been so impressed with Jason’s efforts with the Ker 46 Tonnere and we see the 40 as the next step in that development. At last a full blown 40’ race boat competing under IRC. Happy days indeed!” Ancasta through its extensive network will be handling all the sales and marketing as well as providing the highest standard of after sales care and support. The first two Ker 40’s coming to the UK will be based at Hamble Yacht Services in time for this seasons racing. For more details contact Ancasta International Boat Sales. Tel: 02380 450 000.
