The official introduction and launch of the prototype are due to take place in July 2007. Built using the most up-to-date technology (infusion for the deck and sandwich hull) to optimise strength and weight, the Sun Fast 3200 is aimed both at fast cruising and racing enthusiasts particularly for downwind sailing.
The organisers of the Transquadra 2008 (Saint Nazaire-Madeira-Martinique) have given this new 9.8m long yacht a very warm welcome and have chosen to promote it by giving it its own class for this race using the IRC level rating. Many transatlantic race enthusiasts have already reserved their Sun Fast 3200 and have registered for this transatlantic race!
SPECIFIC PRACTICAL EQUIPMENT:
- a very wide hull fitted with 2 rudders, a cast iron/lead keel, Sail drive engine;
- full Harken® deck gear;
- a wide cockpit with a tiller on each side;
- infusion constructed main bulkhead;
- an exceptional interior layout: two large double berths aft, central saloon, galley and chart table at foot of companionway, heads forward, watertight bulkheads etc.
The Sun Fast 3200 will have its preview at the Grand Pavois show next September.
