The Ker 40 represents a paradigm shift in offshore racing, emerging as a purpose-built IRC (International Rating Certificate) speedster that prioritizes planing performance without sacrificing handicap competitiveness. Launched by the renowned partnership of Ker Design and McConaghy Boats, this model was engineered to fill the void between traditional 40-foot cruiser-racers and elite TP52 grand prix machines. By utilizing McConaghy’s expertise in advanced composite construction, the Ker 40 achieves a high strength-to-weight ratio, allowing for a massive sail plan and a deep-draft keel that delivers exceptional stability and power-to-weight performance.
