Technohull has unveiled the Alpha 40, a remarkable addition that embodies a progressive design philosophy first introduced with the Alpha 50. This 12.1-meter marvel features expansive deck areas, luxurious lounging spaces, and an aerodynamic hardtop complete with a large windshield, all crafted to enhance your dayboating adventure.



Beneath its sleek exterior, the Alpha 40 is designed for ultimate comfort and functionality. The lower cabin includes a spacious double berth, complemented by a dedicated head and shower boasting an impressive 1.85-meter headroom. The advanced naval architecture ensures that guests experience the highest level of comfort, whether cruising at low or high speeds.



Built to the exacting standards of Technohull’s cutting-edge 70-acre production facility, the Alpha 40 has already seen remarkable interest, with 28 hulls sold prior to its official launch.

Nothing quite compares to the excitement of a leisurely day on the water aboard a luxury 40-footer, especially one as sophisticated as the Alpha 40 from an industry leader like Technohull. This manufacturer is celebrated for its innovative approach to creating high-performance luxury boats and tenders, and the Alpha 40 stands as a testament to this legacy.



The standout feature of the Alpha 40 is its striking and aerodynamic profile, which combines elegance with substantial space for both owners and guests. The graceful carbon hardtop provides shelter from wind, spray, and sun while underway or anchored, while large integrated windshields ensure optimal visibility at the helm. This area is thoughtfully designed to accommodate dual 12-inch multifunction displays and features three sit/stand chairs, guaranteeing comfort for both the driver and passengers, with alternative configurations including two rows of three helm bucket seats.



Guest comfort is paramount on the Alpha 40, thanks to its thoughtfully designed deck layout. Owners can choose from various configurations, whether opting for outboard or inboard engine setups. Each arrangement focuses on creating multiple areas for relaxation.



In the cockpit, stylish settees face one another, flanking a table that is perfect for socializing, cocktails, or al fresco dining. The design allows for multiple seating configurations, whether a U-shaped settee or various sunpad options, while the inboard model offers an expansive sunbed ideal for basking in the sun.

Forward, a chic console settee can double as a small sunbed, complemented by another generous sunpad that stretches across the bow. Each lounging and seating area is adorned with high-quality upholstery and precision stitching, ensuring that guests indulge in comfort and elegance throughout their time aboard.



“The Alpha 40 reflects our latest design philosophy with its spacious deck layout and beautifully crafted carbon hardtop, setting new benchmarks in its category,” says Gerasimos Petratos, CEO of Technohull. “Every aspect of its design maximizes deck space and enhances onboard comfort while being finished to the highest luxury standards.”

Below decks, the Alpha 40 features a cabin designed for comfort, featuring a spacious double berth and a separate head compartment equipped with a shower for both convenience and privacy.

The vessel is built on an exceptional 3-stepped deep-V Dynastream hull, providing thrilling performance without sacrificing cruising comfort or maneuverability. This innovative design allows the hull to plane at low speeds, delivering an exceptionally smooth and efficient ride.



With options for twin 500-horsepower outboards, an 800-liter fuel capacity, and CE Cat B certification for up to 12 passengers. 

Greece company Technohull launched its first hull in 2004. The most popular Technohull models of today include: Omega 45, 38 Grand Sport, 909, Explorer 40 and SeaDNA999.
