Deck

The Gran Turismo 40 Open has been designed around open-air living, with generous exterior spaces offering a choice of environments for relaxation and entertaining. Forward, the wraparound U-shaped seating creates a sociable area with panoramic views, while the electric table option allows the space to be transformed into a sunpad. Aft, the spacious cockpit provides further room for guests to relax, with the potential to create an additional lounging area.

The elevated helm position beneath the sleek T-top provides excellent visibility and a commanding driving position. The selected graphite self-supporting T-top rear cap gives the boat a distinctive contemporary finish, while the protective covers help keep the exterior areas in good condition when the boat is not in use.

The Comfort Trim Level adds practical features for cruising, including an aft cockpit deck wash outlet, dockside freshwater inlet, pre-wiring for air conditioning, a Garmin 16-inch screen with sounder, Venetian blinds in the cabins, a 2 kVA inverter, Garmin world map, deck searchlight and battery charge indicator.

Selected extras:

• Graphite self-supporting T-top rear cap
• Set of protective covers for the foredeck cockpit, cockpit and table, pilot bench, helm station and galley
• Deck searchlight
• Aft cockpit deck wash outlet
• Dockside freshwater inlet

Cabin

Below deck, the Gran Turismo 40 Open combines refined finishes with a clever use of space, creating a calm and welcoming interior. The standard two-cabin, one-head layout provides practical accommodation for family cruising and weekends away.

The forward living area converts from a comfortable dinette into a transverse double berth, making the most of the available space. The separate aft cabin provides an additional sleeping area, while privacy curtains in both spaces enhance comfort and privacy aboard.

The spacious bathroom incorporates a separate shower stall, adding to the practicality of the layout for overnight stays and extended weekends. Ambient lighting and carefully considered interior details create a contemporary atmosphere throughout, balancing comfort with functionality.

The selected Comfort Trim Level includes Venetian blinds in the cabins, while the boat’s onboard inverter supports the use of suitable electrical equipment away from shore power.
