Farr 400 Velocita - For Sale

Velocita is an outstanding example of the highly regarded Farr 400 class - a lightweight, full-carbon performance racer designed for speed, handling, and efficiency. She has been meticulously maintained and presents in excellent condition, with her carbon standing rigging recently serviced and reset on a 10-year cycle.

The thoroughly modern hull form features moderate beam, light displacement, and low drag, delivering excellent balance, power, and handling. A deep retractable bulb keel with nearly 60% ballast ratio provides a low VCG and impressive stability. Combined with her generous rig and large asymmetric spinnakers flown from a centerline retractable bowsprit, Velocita is quick and competitive upwind while delivering exhilarating reaching and downwind performance.

Her asymmetric deck layout is inspired by Grand Prix race boat practice, optimised for fast, efficient manoeuvres. A pedestal grinder system drives rapid spinnaker hoists, gybes, and string-line drops, while the stable hull and ballast configuration mean she can be raced successfully with a crew of just eight.

All spars, spreaders, and shrouds are carbon by Southern Spars. Swept spreaders and twin masthead backstays provide security and enable a powerful square-top mainsail. Construction is infused carbon fibre throughout hull and deck - advanced technology for maximum performance while keeping ownership and maintenance costs practical.

Velocita represents a rare opportunity to acquire a race-ready Farr 400 in excellent condition.
