Farr Yacht Design’s goal in developing the Farr 30 was to create a state-of-the-art offshore one-design that would be fast and exciting, yet uncomplicated and economical. They set-out with the design of the Farr 30 with a “clean sheet of paper” in that there were no rating rule driven compromises in performance. “Our experience in Whitbread 60’s and American’s Cup boats gave us confidence that incredible light air speed does not necessarily require large overlapping jibs. Fractional rigs are preferred over masthead rigs for upwind performance and easy handling, but with no arbitrary rule restrictions, masthead spinnakers will turbo-charge the boat downwind. The symmetrical vs. asymmetrical spinnaker debate is a non-issue. Each has its advantages and place, so we have allowed for both, making the Farr 30 today’s most versatile downwind boat.” When the Farr 30 emerged in the mid-nineties, it was quickly embraced. The boat was sweet to sail, and an international one design class soon grew. “The boat is a classic, period. Exceptional performance and durability at an affordable price (if you can find one!), easy to trailer, rig and launch with an annual sail limitation to help keep costs down. Oh, and the adrenalin rush of sailing downwind in 30+ knots and pulling off a jibe! It’s hard to compete with.” Farr 30 class president Deneen Demourkas The decks have been repaired and repainted and the engine head has been rebuilt. This boat has always been dry sailed and stored on its trailer.
