Ready for the world: Upgraded Elan 40 Blue-Water Cruiser

Fresh back from a year-long transatlantic voyage—sailing from the Netherlands to the Caribbean and back. This means the boat is thoroughly ocean-tested and directly ready for departure. This Elan 40 is a fantastic design by Rob Humphreys. She sails beautifully, steers with great precision, and simply feels very safe and logical—both on deck and below when conditions get rough. What makes this boat truly unique is how we customized her: we converted her from a standard cruiser into a fully equipped, off-grid 'blue-water' machine.

We packed her with upgrades to be completely self-sufficient for ocean crossings and long periods at anchor. She features a solid lithium battery bank, Starlink, comprehensive safety gear, and storm sails. If you just want to sail in the Netherlands or the North Sea, you'll benefit from a wonderfully comfortable boat that lets you go completely off-grid. And if you're dreaming of the trip of a lifetime? You can literally cast off tomorrow. Everything you need is already on board.

Detailed information sheet and additional photos are available on request. Viewings are possible in Scheveningen, and currently until September in Rotterdam.
