40 Convertible

The Pace 40 Sport Fisherman is a re-creation of the original Egg Harbor 40 Sedan built from 1975 until early 1986. (The molds for several Egg Harbor designs were purchased in the late 1980s and sent to Taiwan where the Pace series was built by Nautique Yachts.) Aside from her solid front windshield and bold deckhouse mask, the Pace 40’s styling remains very close to that of the original Egg Harbor 40. Below, the two-stateroom interior is similar to later-model Egg 40s with a spacious main salon, mid-level galley, and a single head with a separate stall shower. (The breakfast bar found in the original Egg 40 is eliminated in the Pace, thereby opening up the salon considerably.) A generous amount of well-crafted teak cabinets and paneling is applied throughout the Pace’s interior, and large cabin windows admit plenty of natural lighting. On deck, the cockpit includes a teak sole and covering boards, bait prep center, and a transom door. Caterpillar 375hp diesels cruise the Pace 40 around 22 knots, and 485hp 6-71 Detroits cruise about 25 knots. A handsome boat, the Pace 40 is a good reproduction of a classic Jersey-style sportfishing boat.
