Farr 30 Flyer YACHT DESIGN Farr 30 IRC-Optimized Bowsprit Farr Yacht Design has designed a removable, IRC optimized bowsprit for the Farr 30 One Design. The bowsprit measures 1.79m from the stem, a length which was chosen after evaluating similar boats and determining that the increased downwind boat speed eclipsed the induced rating penalty. The bowsprit’s cross sectional shape was derived from FYD’s proprietary formula that minimizes aerodynamic drag without compromising structural rigidity. 3D modeling tools were used to ensure that the bowsprit conforms perfectly to the bow geometry. The tackline is routed through existing hardware on the bow, reducing the amount of additional hardware required. A single bolt per side attaches the bowsprit to the hull; the bowsprit is easily removed so that the boat can get back into its one design configuration. Competition Composites Inc. (CCI) is an authorized manufacturer for the new bowsprit design. CCI is a unique Canadian manufacturing business focused on designing and building composites products for various industries, especially for the boating market. For the past several years, CCI has been manufacturing our Farr 395 and Beneteau 10R rudder upgrades. The feedback from these boat owners has been very positive regarding the craftsmanship, feel, and performance of the rudder designed by FYD, and manufactured by CCI. CCI offers the new IRC-optimized bowsprit for $3,900 USD, not including packaging & handling. For more details and to order, please contact CCI at [email protected] or +1-613-599-6951. If you wish to speak with FYD, please contact us at [email protected] or +1-410-267-0780.

  • Mast Furling Installation Guide
    NORTH SAILS MAST FURLING INSTALLATION GUIDE Congratulations on purchasing your new North Mast Furling Mainsail. This guide is intended to help better understand the key construction elements, usage and installation of your sail. If you have any questions after reading this document and before installing your sail, please contact your North Sails representative. It is best to have two people installing the sail which can be accomplished in less than one hour. Your boat needs facing directly into the wind and ideally the wind speed should be less than 8 knots. Step 1 Unpack your Sail Begin by removing your North Sails Purchasers Pack including your Quality Control and Warranty information. Reserve for future reference. Locate and identify the battens (if any) and reserve for installation later. Step 2 Attach the Mainsail Tack Begin by unrolling your mainsail on the side deck from luff to leech. Lift the mainsail tack area and attach to your tack fitting. Your new Mast Furling mainsail incorporates a North Sails exclusive Rope Tack. This feature is designed to provide a soft and easily furled corner attachment. The sail has less patching the normal corner, but has the Spectra/Dyneema rope splayed and sewn into the sail to proved strength. Please ensure the tack rope is connected to a smooth hook or shackle to ensure durability and that no chafing occurs. NOTE: If your mainsail has a Crab Claw Cutaway and two webbing attachment points – Please read the Stowaway Mast Furling Mainsail installation guide. Step 2 www.northsails.com Step 3 Attach the Mainsail Clew Lift the mainsail clew to the end of the boom and run the outhaul line through the clew block.

  • Spinnakers and Poles/Bowsprits Explained
    SPINNAKERS AND POLES/BOWSPRITS EXPLAINED The RORC Rating Office is sometimes asked whether symmetric and asymmetric spinnakers are rated differently, and whether there is a rating increase if you use both types. The question is often prompted by the IRC application form asking questions about the spinnakers of each type carried aboard, rather than just the largest spinnaker area (SPA) and total number of spinnakers. There are two aspects of downwind sail rating: the sail itself and the type of pole (if any) it is set on - as explained below. Text in italics is taken from the IRC 2018 Rule text. SPINNAKERS For the calculation of your rating, IRC considers the largest spinnaker area (SPA) and the total number of spinnakers carried. 21.6 Spinnakers 21.6.1 Boats carrying more than three spinnakers in total on board while racing will incur an increase in rating. 21.6.2 Spinnaker area (SPA) shall be calculated from: SPA = ((SLU + SLE)/2) * ((SFL + (4 * SHW))/5) * 0.83 SLU, SLE, SFL and SHW of the largest area spinnaker on board shall be declared. The calculated area of this spinnaker will be shown on a boat’s certificate as the maximum permitted SPA. 8.10.1 Values stated on certificates for LH, Hull Beam, Bulb Weight, Draft, x, P, E, J, FL, MUW, MTW, MHW, HLUmax, HSA, PY, EY, LLY, LPY, Cutter Rig HLUmax, SPA, STL are maximum values. Are symmetric or asymmetric spinnakers rated differently? Not directly, but see the section on pole type below. Is there a rating increase if I carry both symmetric and asymmetric spinnakers? Not directly, but see the section on pole type below.

  • Forestay Fittings and Halyard Routing Cutter Stay on Masthead Rigs
    Forestay fittings and halyard routing Cutter stay on masthead rigs On fractional rigs the forestay fitting is either fitted directly on to the mast or combined with the halyard box (Seldén combi boxes). The forestay is often attached to the fitting with a toggle. The stainless strap of the combi box wraps around the whole box and serves as a reinforcement that takes up the loads from the forestay. It also locks the sheave axles in the right position. The combi box penetrates deep inside the mast, allowing the spinnaker halyard to run freely past the genoa halyard. This solution substantially increases the durability and service life of the halyards. See illustration on page 21. Art. No. 505-067-10. Art. No. 505-018-03.
