The O'Day 40 is an American sailboat that was designed by C. Raymond Hunt Associates and Philippe Briand as a cruiser and first built in 1986.[1][2][3][4][5][6]

The boat is a development of the Sun Fizz 40, which was licensed by Jeanneau and developed into the O'Day 39 for production in the US. C. Raymond Hunt Associates then took Briand's design and further developed it into the O'Day 40, with the addition of a suger-scoop transom and a revised interior. Both Jeanneau and the O'Day Corp. were owned by US conglomerate Bangor Punta at the time.[1][2][7][8][9][10]

The design was built by O'Day Corp., a division of the Bangor Punta Corp., in the United States. It was built starting in 1986, with 180 boats completed and replaced the O'Day 39 in production.[1][2][11][12][13][14]
