Grand Sturdy 40.0 AC

Light and space, these are the key concepts in the Intero style that Linssen Yachts has developed in collaboration with KesselsGranger DesignWorks. Following in the wake of the Grand Sturdy 30.0 and 35.0, the 40.0 AC and Sedan have also been completely revamped.

What immediately stands out are the flowing lines. A striking example of this is the curved three-part window section with its extra-large glass surface. This is not only beautiful, it’s functional as well. The large surface area allows a maximum amount of daylight to enter, which makes for a pleasant living environment. The lights are incorporated into the flush fitted pillar trims.

The larger portholes in the front and rear cabin also let more light into the interior. Having the same style elements, it looks like one big window.

Deliberate choice of materials
Compared to the interiors of previous models, the new interior is lighter and more contrasting. It starts with the floor with a warm, deep brown Wenge finish, laid in wide strips for optimum depth. Okoumé hardwood with a cherry finish has always been used by Linssen Yachts as an interior finish. However, with the Intero there has been a deliberate choice for a lighter cherry shade that contrasts beautifully with the leather upholstery of the furniture.

Colour combinations
As you can see, several colour combinations are also available for the hull, for example a Midnight Blue or Super Jet Black hull with Eggshell White superstructure. The photographs show the first 40.0 AC Intero with an Olive Green hull and Sand Beige superstructure. Beautiful colour styling. Once again modern but still timeless...

Enduring space-saving wonder
The Grand Sturdy 40.0 has been a true space-saving wonder since the first generation (the 40.9 was first presented in 2007). With the three spacious cabins (AC) and therefore six berths, a spacious saloon with L-shaped sofa and pantry to starboard and vis-à-vis dinette to port, you can stay on board very comfortably for longer periods of time and make long trips on European waterways.

New aft cabin
The Grand Sturdy 40.0 AC INTERO’s master cabin has been redesigned. This has created even more space around the bed and there’s a handy walk-in closet on the port side next to the combined toilet/shower. In the saloon the stairs to and from the aft deck have been upgraded. They have been widened at the bottom for more convenience. Together with the vertical handrail, this greatly increases safety. The rear wall in the saloon has also been modified. On the inside, of course, the windows immediately catch your eye as well. They look as beautiful and stylish on the outside as they are light and spacious on the inside.
