So probably something without a sprit as standard,
MAT 12?

Maybe look at the designers it could be instead,
R/P
Humphreys
Juan K
Mills
Corby

Are the only ones that come to mind, AFAIK Juan K and R/P hasnt done a 41ft IRC boat thats based in this part of the world, so that just leaves the other 3.

Sounds awfully like a Bene First 40 with a bowsprit! I hear sunsail are fitting bowsprits to their fleet of F40s too although their ones dont have a T bulb. After some of the ideas posted around here the F40 would be a massive letdown!

Can we link this to the '505's are very expensive' thread?

Could be a lot of things depending on how you define 'successful designer'.
Sparkman and Stevens?
Herreshoff?
Who won the most America's Cups?

I used to sail a Lightwave 395 which had the draft, there was one with a sprit IIRC, but I guess that would be in the classics regatta these days?

Well you can rule out....
 
Grand Soleil - No 41
Archambault - no torpedo keel
Salona - no torpedo keel
 
However, the new Dehler 41  is an almost exact fit.
 
Torpedo keel, 8 foot draft - 2,995kg.  Symetrical as standard, designed by Judel / Vrolijk

I reckon it is Oystercatcher XXVI, a Humphries design built for the GP/IRC 42 rulings for Richard Matthews. Very successful boat in the UK and the Caribbean and fits the description pretty much exactly!
