1999 Luhrs 40 Convertible

Step aboard and you can tell this 40 Convertible has been owned by someone who actually uses a boat, not just washes it. The cockpit is laid out for serious fishing days, with plenty of room to work a spread and still keep the crew comfortable. Up top, the flybridge gives you excellent sightlines forward and aft, so you can watch the baits and the bar at the same time. Inside, the galley is set up to be practical underway, with good grab points and storage you don’t have to crawl to reach. The two-stateroom layout makes weekend trips easy, whether you’re chasing fish or just sneaking away for a quiet overnight.

This 40 Convertible shines in local waters where you might run offshore in the morning and tuck into a protected anchorage by afternoon. The hull form is known for a solid ride in a mixed chop, yet it’s still efficient enough for longer runs to the edge. With a bridge high enough to spot weedlines and birds, but not so tall that wind becomes a battle at the dock, it suits variable coastal conditions well. The two-stateroom layout and generous salon make it comfortable for those humid lay days when the crew is holed up inside waiting for the forecast to improve.
