Our classic Sun Fizz 40 is constantly updated. This, combined with her performance as a cruiser racer, provides a memorable sailing experience with all the latest equipment.

 

For 2022 Disk Drives rolling improvements have continued with the addition of a powerful 1000 w Lofrans Caymen electric windless making recovery of the anchor and up to 60 meters of 10 mm chain a breeze. This combined with the major investment last season including a new Volvo D2-50 engine,  Torqeedo 1103 travel electric outboard makes Disk Drive a good choice for performance cruiser sailing.

 

The Sun Fizz 40 offers performance and superb handling under sail and power combined with a very versatile family friendly layout. The large new spray hood provides excellent shelter for the cockpit but is lowered easily by its quick release buckles.
