Kalik 40 (Concept 40, Ocean 40)
Description
The Kalik 40 is a Belgian fiberglass cruiser-racer designed by American naval architect Gary Mull and built by Kyung-Il Yacht (Korea) between 1979 and 1981 (some sources note builds by Vennekens or related yards in Belgium, with limited production—likely dozens of hulls total before the line ended). Also sold under names like Concept 40 or similar to the Ocean 40, it features a fin keel (with options for deep 6.25 ft / 1.91 m or very deep 6.67 ft / 2.03 m variants), skeg-mounted rudder for protection and balanced handling, solid GRP construction for durability, a masthead sloop rig, and a reputation for good sailing performance combined with comfortable accommodations (spacious interior for its era, typically 2–3 cabins/sleeps 6–8, galley, head, and storage suited to coastal/offshore or family cruising).
