FAREAST 23R – modern sportboat – club racing & training – Simonis Voogd
The FAREAST 23R is the newest addition to the FAREAST R-Line (Racing) range. Designed by Simonis Voogd, it was created to meet a clear need: a fast, modern, and accessible boat for clubs, training, and racing, without unnecessary complexity.
Inspired directly by its big sister, the FAREAST 28R, the 23R features the same sleek lines and performance DNA, in a more compact format, easier to trail, launch, and operate daily.
With its characteristic reverse bow and wide transom, the FAREAST 23R is highly effective upwind and particularly playful downwind. Under established conditions, speeds in the mid-teens are common.
The deck plan has been designed to remain simple, ergonomic, and efficient. The boat can be handled by various crews, from racing clubs and schools to passionate amateurs. It clearly positions itself as a “Grand Prix” boat in its category, while remaining healthy and non-intimidating.
The hull provides an excellent stability/Planing compromise, with a generous ballast ratio of 44%, strong shape stability, and reduced wetted surface.
The absence of shrouds allows for a very modern rigging: square-headed mainsail, large forward triangle, with no runners or complex maneuvers to handle during tacking. The boat prioritizes simplicity and the joy of sailing.
Designed and built according to Far East Boats quality standards, the FAREAST 23R is a reliable, robust, and durable boat, perfectly suited for intensive use in clubs and racing.
