Farr 25 - WHISPER
This one year old Farr25 has won many races in her class, in Cascais and Lisbon and has rekindled a love of the sport, for the owner. Farr25 Whisper has been well prepared and maintained since delivery and the boat is extremely lightweight and fast. Equipped with a set of Olympic Sails, including a main, medium and an A1.5 and a brand new North 3Di Heavy Weather Jib, she is setup for the breezier conditions of the Portuguese Atlantic Coast.

The Farr 25 is also optimized for both ORC and IRC handicap.
Factory finished in epoxy paint and with International Paint anti-foul, the boat is ready to be relocated and relaunched almost anywhere. Shoreside the boat has a high-mode (keel on) cradle which can be adjusted laterally, for shipping / transport.
