DESIGNERS COMMENTS:

The ERYD 40 XSM new model in the ERYD range was also designed with IRC and ORC regulations in mind .

The hull has been carefully designed with the aid of the most sophisticated VPP and CFD (computational fluyi dynamics) methods to achieve the most balanced and high performance behaviour possible in both windward/leeward and costal racing conditions. The race version with tiller steering and double backstay is complemented by the performance cruiser version with centre wheel steering or double wheel steering .The interiors include a spacious dinette and 6 berths. Galley to port and bathroom to starboard.

The construction is of glass/epoxy/corecell infusion with kiln post cure, providing exceptional structural rigidity due to the skilful use of glass unidirectional coupled with a hull geometry that limits longitudinal deflection.

The keel can be high-strength cast iron with lead bulb or all-lead fin with 2.95m draft in the race version and 2.60 in the performance version with respective displacements of 5.3t and 5.7t.

The sail plan is powerful with a generous jib area. The mainsail can be with or without square top with double backstay .Provided Gennaker at head and at 7/8 , staysail gennaker and staysail jib as well as Code 0 mounted on bowsprit . The mast ,boom and vang are in carbon and the standing rigging is stainless steel rod.

The engine is a Nanni 38 hp with sail drive and Gori racing propeller.

PRESS REVIEW:

ERYD 40 XSM first look: catchily-titled 40ft racer

Due to launch in late August 2025, the catchily titled ERYD 40 XSM will be a strong contender in the popular market for 40ft race boats

This Emanuele Rossi design builds on the success of the EYRD 30 of 2015 and the more recent EYRD 32, but is a more performance-oriented yacht with longer legs that can be configured for racing under both the ORC and IRC rating systems. The result is a design that’s a strong contender in the popular market for 40ft race boats such as the MAT1220 and XR41.

Rossi spent a lot of time analysing velocity prediction and computational fluid dynamics outputs to create what he says is, “the most balanced and high-performance behaviour possible in both windward/leeward and coastal racing conditions.”

In particular he aimed to minimise waterline beam for enhanced light airs performance, especially downwind, yet the hull lines also provide considerable form stability at around 18-20° of heel.

Construction includes unidirectional and bi-axial glass fabrics, Corecell foam sandwich and infused epoxy resins post-cured in an oven. Spars, including bowsprit, are carbon. Attention has also been paid to maximising structural rigidity. This is helped by the pronounced reverse sheer that gives the design a distinctive profile.

It’s a shape that Rossi says “makes a very big contribution to longitudinal stiffness.” It also has the benefit of minimising weight in the ends of the boat.

Even though the deck is flush, with no coachroof, this shape also significantly increases interior volume in the middle of the boat, which has 1.93m (6ft 3in) headroom and enough space for comfortable accommodation. This includes six berths, with a spacious dinette, plus a galley to port and heads to starboard.

Two versions are offered, with the Performance yacht having a pinhead mainsail, standing backstay and either twin wheels or a large single wheel. The Race model has a square top mainsail, with running backstays and tiller steering. Both share the same rig, with the mast mounted well aft, which gives scope for both a conventional staysail or gennaker staysail when sailing on reaching angles.

A number of keel options are offered, including a high strength cast iron fin with a lead bulb, or an all-lead fin. The performance version has a 2.6m draught and 600kg extra displacement, while the racer has a deeper 2.95m keel.
