We are delighted to present "Rumours" to the market. The Elan 40 is a well-balanced performance cruiser designed by Rob Humphreys and built by Elan Yachts in Slovenia. Known for its sleek lines, responsive handling, and solid construction, the Elan 40 offers both exciting sailing performance and comfortable living spaces. Featuring a fractional rig, spacious cockpit, and efficient deck layout, it's easy to sail short-handed while still capable of competitive racing. Below deck, the yacht provides a warm, well-crafted interior with three cabins, a generous saloon, and a fully equipped galley, making it ideal for coastal cruising or extended voyages. This example has been in the current ownership since 2019 and she has been well maintained and upgraded. The boat is now ashore at Portland Marina ready for viewing. Berth at Portland Marina is available for the new owner to continue.
