Overview
The Beneteau Gran Turismo 40 represents a complete redesign from the hull up, incorporating the innovative AirStep 2 hull to enhance ride comfort and performance. This model is the first in the Gran Turismo lineup to feature Volvo Penta D6 engines, delivering increased power and efficiency. The boat aims to combine comfortable cruising with excellent handling and entertaining capabilities.
Power and Performance
Powered by twin Volvo Penta D6 engines producing 370 horsepower each, the Gran Turismo 40 achieved a top speed of 38.4 knots at 3620 RPM during testing, surpassing the previously typical 35 knots with D4 engines. Fuel consumption at this speed was 42 gallons per hour, providing a range of approximately 142 nautical miles. The boat demonstrated quick acceleration, reaching planing speed in 5.3 seconds, 20 knots in 5.7 seconds, and 30 knots in 10 seconds. The most efficient cruising speed was found at 2500 RPM, where the boat maintained 23.6 knots with a reduced fuel burn of 17.5 gallons per hour, extending the range to nearly 209 nautical miles while preserving a 10% fuel reserve. The AirStep hull design contributes significantly to these performance metrics by channeling air beneath the hull to reduce surface friction, enhancing both speed and fuel efficiency. Handling characteristics were notably smooth and responsive, with the boat maintaining a dry ride and excellent visibility due to a modest 5-degree bow-high attitude. Docking maneuvers were facilitated by a highly responsive stern drive joystick, allowing precise control even in tight spaces.
Operational Features and Systems
The Gran Turismo 40 offers practical access to its mechanical systems through a large hatch at the front of the engine compartment, with all critical checkpoints easily reachable. Batteries are secured in ventilated compartments on the port side, adjacent to dual fuel tanks separated by a generator. Fuel filters and shutoff valves are conveniently located for maintenance, with independent fuel and electrical systems for each engine ensuring redundancy. For more extensive servicing, an aft seat and a larger deck hatch provide full engine room access. Shore power connections are positioned on the starboard side of the swim platform, complemented by an optional Glendinning cord reel. Electrical controls are centralized at a panel inside the companionway.
Exterior Design and Helm Station
The boat’s exterior features include a 20-inch rail height that increases to 32 inches near the bow, enhancing safety in working areas. Six 10-inch cleats are strategically placed, including two midship cleats. The bow is equipped with a split rail system and a concealed Lumar windlass with an all-chain rode, supplemented by a stainless steel davit. Remote windlass controls are available both at the bow and helm, though the absence of a chain stopper was noted as a potential improvement. The helm is designed around a center console with a double-wide, adjustable helm seat featuring a flip-up bolster and an adjacent observer seat. Instrumentation centers on a 12-inch Simrad NSS Evo II display with stereo integration, flanked by rocker switches, ignition, trim tab controls, and a compass mounted on the centerline. Additional features include dual air vents directed at the helm, a hand-stitched brow with contrasting colors, digital engine controls, a stern drive joystick, and ample storage. The helm wheel is mounted on a tilt base with a foot rail for added comfort. The windshield is a single-piece design measuring 8 feet 1 inch wide by 4 feet tall, equipped with a pantograph wiper and integrated washer, although interior defrosters were absent.
Conclusion
The Beneteau Gran Turismo 40 demonstrates a successful blend of performance, handling, and operational practicality. Its powerful Volvo Penta D6 engines combined with the AirStep 2 hull deliver impressive speed, fuel efficiency, and a smooth, dry ride even in rough conditions. The boat’s responsive handling and joystick-assisted docking make it accessible for operators transitioning from smaller vessels. Thoughtful design elements in the mechanical layout and helm station enhance usability and comfort. While the boat is designed to entertain large groups comfortably, further details on its entertainment features are available separately. Overall, the Gran Turismo 40 stands out as a capable and well-rounded cruiser.
