Beneteau Gran Turismo 40 Open
The Sea. The Horizon. The Possibilities.
The Beneteau Gran Turismo 40 Open brings together sporty performance, open-air living, and refined comfort in a versatile 40-foot express cruiser. Designed by Andreani Design with naval architecture by Michael Peters Yacht Design, the GT 40 Open makes outdoor living the focus, with generous social spaces from bow to stern. A wraparound U-shaped lounge at the bow converts into a private sunpad, while the spacious aft cockpit provides another inviting area for entertaining or relaxing at anchor. Flexible sunshade configurations allow owners to create just the right balance of sunshine, shade, and open-air freedom throughout the day.
Below deck, the Gran Turismo 40 Open offers surprising comfort for weekends away as well as extended days on the water. The forward living area converts from a comfortable dinette into a transverse double berth, while a separate aft cabin provides additional private sleeping accommodations. A spacious bathroom with a separate shower, thoughtful storage, refined finishes, and ambient lighting give the interior a sophisticated yet relaxed feel. Available with inboard or outboard propulsion and options such as Seakeeper gyro stabilization, the Gran Turismo 40 Open is designed to transition easily from an energetic day on the water to a comfortable overnight escape.
