Powerboat Guide Report
Certainly one of the more popular Taiwan imports, the Kha Shing 40, better known as the Spindrift 40 Motoryacht on the West coast and the Vista 40 or Southern Star 40 MY on the East coast. She's a competent semi-displacement sundeck trawler with a solid fiberglass hull, shallow keel and a modern profile. Over 120 of these have been sold into the US Market and most have been delivered with a 2 stateroom interior layout with galley and dinette down and a lower helm station in the salon. The interior is light teak and the cabinetry and joinerwork are impressive. With her wraparound cabin windows and excellent headroom, the salon of the 40 Ka Shing is quite open in spite of all the teak wood. Notable features include deck access pocket door beside the lower helm station, secure side decks,varnished teak handrails and a roomy master stateroom whose dimentsions are quite impressive for a 40'er. Outside , the covered aft deck is fairly spacious with pently of room to furnish to one's taste for additional outdoor living space . Economical and capable of slightly greater than trawler speeds most of the 40 Ka Shings were powered with economical twin 165 HP Volvo diesels.
As you enter the cabin into the salon there is a leather recliner to port are a leather recliner to starboard. Originally there was a convertible futon to port but current arrangement worked better for owner's lifestyle. The lower helm station is forward and to starboard in the salon and there is a pilot door there to access to starboard side deck. Aft is the master cabin with Queen walkaround berth, ensuite head and stall shower, a couple of full length hanging lockers, plenty of drawer and locker storage and teak and holly sole. Forward of the salon and down to starboard is a convertible dinette and to port is the galley with Full size refrigerator/freezer, sink, microwave, stove and oven and great storage. There are forward windows overlooking the galley and dinette which are covered by a sunbrella privacy cover and, when cover removed , galley and dinette area are really saturated with natural light and really opens up the boat to the outside. There is a second head forward of the galley with head and hand held shower and forward in the bow is the guest stateroom is a sink with mirrired medicine cabinet. the forward stateroom has a vee berth with an an additional overhead berth to port.
Interior woodwork is very nice condition teak joinerwork with teak and holly soles throughout with no evidence of any major leaking however, there is some wood staining around the lower helm pilot door on the port side of the salon.
