Accolades
This story has been recognized by a multitude of different communities and organizations. From the city of Annapolis through to the Commonwealth Of New Zealand to UK based Observer Magazine. The trophy cabinet is extensive! In order to reach this level of excellence, the team demonstrates a lust for knowledge and experience second to none.
The sheer depth of designs is what sets Farr Yacht Designs apart. From 12′ dinghies to Whitbread Sixties. Developing custom made boats to meet the needs of the client is the strength behind the success.
Commercial
Commercial builders benefit from the racing heritage created. Smart sail plans, deck lay outs and handling are elements which contribute to many production boats today.
If you think about it, if an organization were prepared to share in their experience and knowledge for the greater good of sailing then we are fortunate indeed.
Lets be honest when you discount corporate events,how many of us will be able to race on board this mighty vessels in their full glory? So thanks to Bruce and the gang for letting their secrets out!The range of opportunities starts with trailerable sailboats and goes through to sixty or seventy footers, even beyond!
