Farr 3.7

Originally posted by JimC Wait until you add the cost of the gear, fittings, rig and so on :-( Still it can only be good news to get the hull shell out reasonably cheaply, but its a surprisingly low percentage of the total cost.

I think that the hull material cost will be an eye opener for many.   Particularly as the tricky bits are all nicely cut with near zero waste.

Yes, the fittings, rig and foils will cost a fair bit but the Farr 3.7 is a relatively small, single sail boat with a few simple controls.   

The Farr 3.7 is a great boat and although it's been around a while, it's a breath of fresh air.  I wish the class every success. 

I think the 3.7 looks great and I'm following the blogs with interest - keep at it chaps.
Wish I wasn't 90kgs 

Im really looking forward trying the Farr at Blackwater on Monday... 

First go trapeze helming. He'd got the tiller extension stuck between the sail and boom on a tack, and got wet. Easy done when you aren't used to a 6 foot extension!

Did you get a go Jack or did you just get watch?
