Öresund är ju fullt med Farr 40 - nu kommer Farr 25 OD också





Farr 25 byggs i Turkiet av One Design - OD Yacht Design. Nu väntar man bara på segelleveranser för att båten ska komma igång och segla.

Man har haft som målsättning med båten att:
  • Innovative design & construction suitable for advancing technologies
  • High stability, high performance and ease of handling; equal to much larger boats.
  • Suitability for match racing - becoming more and more popular throughout the world, this is equally as important a factor to the popularity of the sport as one-design racing.
  • Highly competitive with the potential of winning under handicap racing like IRC
  • An absolute equality between boats and teams regardless of conditions; put the emphasis on the sailing.
  • Cost-effective, both with the initial purchase and the long term ownership.
  • Easy to store, set-up and launch at the sailing club in coordination of races; without the need for additional marina support facilities.
  • A reasonable crew size of 4 - 5 sailors with a total weight of 815 lbs (370 kg).
  • Racing, socializing and weekend activities under one club/organization
