1998 Legacy 40' Flybridge

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the Legacy 40’ makes smart use of every inch. The wide side decks and sturdy railings feel secure when you’re moving forward to handle lines or relax on the bow. Inside, the large windows and low sills keep the water in view whether you’re at the lower helm or sipping coffee in the salon. The flybridge layout gives the skipper great sightlines fore and aft, yet there’s still a sense of intimacy for guests. Storage is generous—deep lockers, clever galley stowage, and roomy hanging closets—so longer trips don’t feel cluttered. Her semi-displacement hull bridges the gap between trawler comfort and faster passagemaking when the weather window opens.

A Legacy 40’ Flybridge shines in waters where conditions can change from flat calm to choppy in a single day. The hull form tracks confidently in a mixed sea, while the flybridge helm lets you read distant weather and traffic with ease. On hot, humid afternoons, the elevated breeze on the bridge makes long runs more comfortable, and when the sun is fierce you can retreat to the lower helm without giving up visibility. Shoal-friendly draft lets you tuck into quieter anchorages and explore off the beaten path, while the efficient single-engine setup keeps fuel stops to a minimum during extended coastal cruises.
