Farr 30 Evo - Pegasus

Pegasus is a safe, delightful boat to sail, like a big dinghy with a total crew of 6. She now planes in less than 15kts TWS but can sail as deep as a symmetrical Farr 30 and faster. Same upwind except faster in very light conditions - e.g. 4.4kts in 4kts TWS! She is fantastically successful racing against good opposition in the Solent - in all conditions in HP30.  In open IRC racing she’s especially good in very light (<6kts) and very windy (15-30kts).  Over 2 seasons (2018/19) Pegasus won 75% of all races, plus numerous 2nd and 3rd places. The boat won its class (either IRC 2 or 3) several seasons in the Royal Southern Summer Series, and was on the podium in Hamble Big Boats and Winter Series. Pegasus also won its class at the Vice Admirals Cup and the HP30 Nationals. Wins in class at Cowes Week in 2016, 2018 and 2019. In 2017 the boat benefited from a £30,000 rebuild at the end of 2017 - removing everything except the keel and chainplates:

• the mast was completely rebuilt - new Antal halyard sheaves, spreaders fixed properly with custom stainless steel shims to stop them wearing the mast face (so they are very stiff and solid), all standing rigging is new, professionally repainted in black awl-grip
• new boom (powder coated in black)
• all running rigging (2:1 main halyard)
• bottom and foils professionally faired and refinished (foils in Durapox, bottom in Nautix A4) (N.B. Carbon infill on aft edge of keel)
• all balsa coring removed and replaced with solid glass/resin
• cockpit floor stiffened with custom grp “U” beam
• stanchions supported under deck by custom made cantilever beams - no movement 
• jib tracks replaced with fully floating clew control
• jib tack replaced with floating adjuster - 32:1 lead back to cockpit
• all wiring simplified and replaced - now runs off 2 tiny lithium batteries - one for instruments, other for automatic bilge pumps
• inboard engine removed
• new 6hp outboard with custom, removable transom bracket and storage bracket under cockpit
• instruments upgraded, with 3x big displays at mast, 1m carbon wand vertical wind sensor, built in wifi for use with iPad
• 2.2m bowsprit
• custom string drop reeler system for spinnaker take down (reduced drop time from ~30s to <5s!)
• the boat is 250kgs lighter than standard, with no drag from propeller and 110sqm spinnaker she now planes in less than 15kts TWS but can sail as deep as a symmetrical Farr 30 and faster. Same upwind except faster in very light conditions - e.g. 4.4kts in 4kts TWS!
