The Block Island 40, designed by Bill Tripp quickly distinguished herself in ocean racing competition, particularly the Newport-to-Bermuda race. She has enjoyed immense popularity ever since. MANISSES, built by Metalmast Marine in Connecticut, is a very well preserved and cared-for Block Island 40. Yanmar diesel installed in 1999. Beautiful Awlgrip painted hull in 2006. Her spacious main cabin and wide side decks makes her particularly appealing. The photos taken in September 2008 show that she is a very stunning yacht.
