Lucia 40: New 40 ?

[wkstar]

Lucia has been around about 5 years, Any word on a new FP 40 ?

I was just at the factory. They are cranking the Lucia out at such a rate that it has its own factory. All the other sailboats up to 50 (42, 45, 47, 50) are in another factory. I asked about new models (in particular a replacement for the Saba) and the FP employee said they aren't even informed until it actually happens. She said they don't want to talk about something going away unless you can actually order the new model. The Lucia was the first of the new style so my guess is the next to be replaced would be the Saba.
