DesignDesign
The asymmetric deck layout follows modern Grand Prix race boat practice, for high efficiency and fast maneuvers.� � A primary grinder pedestal system allows for high speed spinnaker gybes, sail hoists, and string line spinnaker drops.� These efficiencies combined with the high stability hull form and ballast package allow the boat to be raced successfully with an intended crew of 8.
With the primary carbon winches at the center of the Farr 400 it allows the crew to be successful in a large format style of racing.Ã?Â
The open layout of the cockpit deck along with the proven winch spacing make this Farr 400 ready for to go up against any race boat in its class.
The boat can be easily and inexpensively transported, clearly differentiating this class from others, promoting bigger fleet sizes and lower operating costs.� The keel and rudder can be quickly removed.� The overall beam and length are constrained to allow the hull to be tilted to fit within the dimensions of a 40 foot flat rack container for shipping, whether directly on the flat rack or on its own dedicated trailer on the flat rack.� The boat can be transported on the road without exceeding driving restrictions in most regions, on its own dedicated trailer or with the flat rack on a truck or trailer.� � The carbon mast separates into two sections and all components fit completely within the transport system footprint.
ConstructionThe Farr 400 is completly built in carbon fiber/epoxy sandwich contruction, making this one of the first designers to have brought this contruction to market in a poduction boat. All major components of the hull, deck, and structures are fabricated in carbor epoxy with vacuum infusion technology. All the major production pieces were created using 5-axis technology. Weight is controlled completely throughout the entire build process.Ã?Â
