Schock 41

Designed by William E. Cook and built by W. D. Schock Corp. during a brief three-year production run from 1983 to 1985, this 40.75-foot sailboat represents a rare find with only five hulls ever constructed. The fin keel and spade rudder configuration, combined with a masthead sloop rig, delivers responsive handling characteristics that make her well-suited for both coastal cruising and club racing. With a sail area to displacement ratio of 20.45, the Schock 41 offers spirited performance under sail while maintaining reasonable stability for extended cruising. The generous beam of nearly 13 feet provides ample interior volume, while the deep 7.5-foot draft ensures good windward ability and contributes to her seaworthiness in offshore conditions. The boat's comfort ratio of 23.27 indicates a relatively quick motion at sea, suggesting she's better suited for active sailors rather than those seeking an ultra-comfortable cruising platform. Her capsize screening formula of 2.06 falls within acceptable parameters for coastal and near-offshore sailing, though careful attention to weather conditions would be prudent for extended offshore passages. Given the extremely limited production numbers, finding one of these boats requires patience, but owners typically praise their sailing characteristics and build quality from the respected Schock yard.
