Owners comments:
Opportunites like this do not come around too often, our Farr 280 was fully refurbished in 2020 with new halyards, sheets and lines, completely refurbished hydraulic mast jack system and forestay, including new bilges installed and hull touch-ups done, with the built-in Lombardini engine and saildrive fully serviced in 2023. We are confident to say she is in excellent shape, race ready and probably the best maintained and equipped example of Farr 280 that you can ever find. Whether you enjoy club racing, round the cans, or mixing it with the best in inshore and coastal circuit she will certainly tick the boxes. She was kept in great racing trim and condition.
