Azura Kai is a Passport 40 designed by Robert Perry. She is built to take a cruising couple anywhere in the world in comfort and security. She very robustly built and sails with an easy motion that inspires confidence. It’s been said that a Passport 40 responds to open water like a puppy let of it’s leash.
The interior is the pullman berth layout with the master berth on the port side just forward of the mast. The head is in the fore-peak with a 24″ hatch which works well, providing full headroom. Having the hatch over the head rather than a v-berth is much less of a problem if you forget the hatch is open when a rain shower comes over.
She is richly finished in teak throughout, with a warm, homey feel, and an open layout.
