Yachting Monthly reviews the Warrior 40

Product Overview

Manufacturer:, price as reviewed:.

What’s she like to sail? The Warrior 40 will give you no thrills on the wind but she is clearly a weatherly boat, carrying a lot more sail than, say, an equivalent- sized Hallberg-Rassy in such conditions. That’s because she’s heavy – 14.83 registered tons, which goes up to 16 tons when she’s in cruising mode. She sets a 135% genoa, an in-mast furling mainsail and a self-tacking staysail without a boom. Her deck-stepped mast has two sets of cross-trees and a pair of forward-facing jumper struts, tensioned via an adjustable backstay. There are Lewmar 44 winches for the sheets and 40s for the halyards. It all amounts to an arrangement that pleases her skipper greatly – and with two Atlantic crossings beneath his lifebelt, who could argue? What’s she like, in port and at anchor? A double bow roller takes a 45lb CQR anchor, 40m (130ft) of chain and the same of warp. She’s a heavy boat which will always need this kind of hefty ground tackle. There is also a 1,000W electrically operated windlass to haul it all back in. In fact, it proved to be so powerful that rally organiser John noticed that the foredeck was ‘flexing’, so he refitted the windlass with substantial stainless steel bearers above and below deck, which has eliminated the problem. Despite her theoretically high form stability – and perhaps due in part to a shallowish keel (5ft) for her size, John found that she rolled uncomfortably at anchor occasionally. In Tyrrel Bay, on the Caribbean island of Carriacou, he came up with a novel idea for dealing with the problem. He tied his drogue to the boom-end, then, using a preventer, hauled the boom outboard and dipped the drogue in the sea. It dampened the boat’s motion down a treat, but was only suitable in wide-open roadsteads with plenty of swinging room to spare. Would she suit you and your crew? For comfort both at sea an in port, you’ll have to go a long way to find a better boat. Her six-berth accommodation is sensible and roomy, yet practical. She has the form stability and easy motion for running down the Trades but is stiff enough to bash upwind. If you sail year round and want a boat for all seasons, she fits the bill. A portable 4kW generator, stowed neatly in a glassfibre pod beneath the skipper’s bunk, produces 440 amp hours through the inverter and gave us enough power in mid-winter to run fan heaters off three-pin plugs while under sail. In complete contrast, the lack of a fixed sprayhood – which is how many Warriors were delivered – enables the crew to create a through-draught under the bimini when she’s in the tropics. Her accommodation is very comfortable and well thought out, without being over-the-top in luxury. A family of four could make a three-year circumnavigation in this boat and still be able to talk to each other at the end of it.

  • Sailboat Guide

Warrior 40 is a 39 ′ 4 ″ / 12 m monohull sailboat designed by Bill Dixon and Angus Primrose and built by Trident Marine Ltd. starting in 1988.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

  • SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

Twin diesels available as an option.

The Warrior 40 Sailboat

The Warrior 40 is a 12-meter cutter designed by Bill Dixon and Angus Primrose. It has been built by Trident Marine Ltd since 1988. This sturdy offshore cruiser caters to serious, long-distance cruising. With its robust design and attention to construction detail, the Warrior 40 often exceeds sailors' expectations for a reliable and capable vessel on the open ocean.

Published Specification for the Warrior 40

  • Underwater Profile:  Fin keel and skeg hung rudder
  • Hull Material:  GRP (Fiberglass)
  • Length Overall:  39'4" (12.00m)
  • Waterline Length:  31'3" (9.53m)
  • Beam:  13'0" (4.0m)
  • Draft:  5'0" (1.52m)
  • Rig Type:  Cutter
  • Displacement:  18,739lb (8,500kg)
  • Designer:  Angus Primrose & Bill Dixon
  • Builder:  Trident Marine (UK)

The Warrior 40 has a water capacity of 156 gallons and a fuel capacity of 50 gallons, and has a spacious and practical layout that can accommodate up to six people in three cabins. The forward cabin has a double berth and a hanging locker, while the aft cabin has two single berths and a locker. The saloon has a U-shaped settee that can convert into a double berth, a large table, and plenty of storage space. Twin diesels were available as an option.

Published Design Ratios for the Warrior 40

The Warrior 40 sailboat exhibits characteristics that can be inferred from the given design ratios, each revealing different aspects regarding performance, stability, comfort, and safety. Here's an analysis based on those ratios:

  • Sail Area/Displacement Ratio (15.0): This ratio suggests that the Warrior 40 has a modest power-to-weight balance. A ratio of 15.0 places it below the threshold for high performance, which starts around 16. This means the sailboat is not particularly overpowered and should be adequate for cruising purposes, providing a good balance between sailing performance and handling ease.
  • Ballast/Displacement Ratio (44.1): This high ratio indicates that the boat is capable of withstanding considerable lateral forces from wind, making it stiffer and potentially more stable in heavy wind conditions. However, it's critical to note that without information on the distribution and concentration of the ballast, it's challenging to make a definitive judgment on its actual impact on stability. A boat with concentrated ballast in a deeper keel typically offers better resistance against capsizing than one with shallow draft ballast.
  • Displacement/Length Ratio (411): Falling in the ultraheavy displacement category, the Warrior 40 is a heavily built boat, implying that it might be slower but more stable in rough waters. Boats with such a high displacement-to-length ratio tend to have ample storage and are built for lengthy passages and heavier seas, albeit at the price of lower speed and agility when compared to lighter boats.
  • Comfort Ratio (41.6): This ratio places the Warrior 40 in the category of boats with a motion associated with heavy bluewater cruisers. It suggests that occupants can expect a relatively gentle and stable motion in most sea conditions, favorable for long voyages where comfort and reduced fatigue are crucial.
  • Capsize Screening Formula (1.7): The low score in this ratio indicates good stability and a reduced likelihood of capsizing in rough waters, corroborating its suitability for ocean passages. This is consistent with the boat's robust build and design, aimed at enhancing safety and seaworthiness over long distances.

While these ratios provide valuable insights, they do have their theoretical limitations. For example, the Ballast/Displacement Ratio does not account for how the ballast is distributed within the hull, which is a critical factor in assessing the true stability and performance under various sea conditions. A deeper keel might confer additional stability compared to a similarly weighted but shallower one.

Furthermore, Ted Brewer's Comfort Ratio tends to favor traditional heavy cruisers with their narrower beam and longer overhangs, which are not always reflective of modern yacht design trends that include wider beams and lighter materials. This shift in design philosophy might render the comfort ratio less indicative of actual comfort experienced by the crew in newer yacht models.

In summary, the Warrior 40 appears to be a robustly built cruising sailboat suitable for heavier seas and designed with a preference for safety and comfort over speed, making it an excellent candidate for long voyages and bluewater expeditions. Yet, potential buyers or users should always consider complementing these theoretical assessments with practical evaluations, including sea trials and reviews from other sailors to get a comprehensive understanding of the boat's performance and capabilities.

The fuel tank has a capacity of 189 liters (49 US gallons, 41 imperial gallons).

Sailing characteristics

This section covers widely used rules of thumb to describe the sailing characteristics. Please note that even though the calculations are correct, the interpretation of the results might not be valid for extreme boats.

What is Capsize Screening Formula (CSF)?

The capsize screening value for Warrior 40 is 1.96, indicating that this boat could - if evaluated by this formula alone - be accepted to participate in ocean races.

What is Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed?

The theoretical maximal speed of a displacement boat of this length is 7.5 knots. The term "Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed" is widely used even though a boat can sail faster. The term shall be interpreted as above the theoretical speed a great additional power is necessary for a small gain in speed.

The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level. The immersion rate for Warrior 40 is about 252 kg/cm, alternatively 1415 lbs/inch. Meaning: if you load 252 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm. Alternatively, if you load 1415 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.
