Taillevant has always been based at Willsboro Marina on Lake Champlain in New York State so she has spent most of her life in fresh water. In the fall of 2022, the owner relocated the yacht to the Caribbean, specifically to Martinique, and then moved it to the British Virgin Islands (BVI) the following year. The owner has consistently maintained and upgraded the vessel, addressing any deficiencies with care. Recent improvements include new North Sails 3Di sails, a new autopilot, new AIS, new batteries, and fresh antifouling, among other updates.
The Farr designed Beneteau First 40 quickly established itself as a performer on the race circuit.
If racing is not your thing. Not to worry Farr has done it again balancing comfort and performance to ensure all on board are comfortable. The light oak veneer creates an airy, simple and modern atmosphere down below. The aft cabins have an impressive 6ft of head room, hanging lockers and decent sized berths with 12 volt fans throughout and opening ports in each room for maximum comfort.
The nav station has lots of flat surface area and easy access for mounting instruments and the galley is well appointed with all the amenities you would expect.
If you are into on shore racing, offshore racing or simply cruising around the Caribbean, Taillevant will meet your demands.
The owners of Taillevant have kept her in excellent shape throughout the years, sparing no expense when it comes to maintenance.
