Victory 41

Designed by renowned Dutch naval architect E.G. Van De Stadt, this handsome masthead ketch represents classic offshore cruising design from the late 1970s. With only four examples ever built by UK-based Aberdour Marine and Tyler Mouldings Ltd., the Victory 41 stands as an exceptionally rare find in today's market. The yacht's traditional long keel configuration and substantial displacement of over 23,000 pounds create a seaworthy platform ideal for extended offshore passages. Her generous ballast ratio and impressive comfort ratio of 40.17 indicate excellent stability and motion characteristics in challenging conditions, while the conservative capsize screening formula of 1.61 reflects Van De Stadt's emphasis on safety and seaworthiness. The masthead ketch rig offers versatility for long-distance cruising, allowing for balanced sail combinations and easier handling in heavy weather. Her moderate beam and traditional proportions suggest comfortable accommodations without sacrificing sailing performance. The fiberglass construction ensures durability for serious cruising applications. Built during an era when offshore cruising boats prioritized seaworthiness over speed, the Victory 41 appeals to sailors seeking a proven design for blue-water adventures. Her rarity makes finding one a special opportunity for those appreciating Van De Stadt's thoughtful approach to ocean-going yacht design.
