A Breath of Fresh Air in Offshore Racing
Born from a fruitful collaboration with major players in the sailing world – the architectural firm VPLP Design and Multiplast – the Sun Fast 30 One Design is a 30-foot sailboat that is innovative, powerful, and versatile, aiming to make offshore racing more accessible, more fun, and more sustainable.
A One-Design Tailored for Offshore Racing
The Sun Fast 30 One Design aims to open a new chapter in offshore racing by offering a one-design dedicated to multi-day competition, accessible to amateurs and the new generation. With a reasonable budget, they will have a 100% made in France one-design, perfectly equipped for racing and easy to maintain. This One Design class will become a benchmark for offshore sailing, with an exciting international racing program.
Goal: Performance and Sensations
Each of the three project partners brought their expertise to produce a boat with exceptional performance. The Sun Fast 30 One Design benefits from the latest advances in infusion construction, ensuring strength and stiffness with limited weight. The slightly rounded bow, inspired by the "scow" design, promises sensations and power on all points of sail. Equipment such as the autopilot and electronics will be adapted for double-handed offshore racing, or even solo.
A Recyclable Production Sailboat
Despite its remarkable performance, the Sun Fast 30 One Design is also an environmentally friendly boat. It is the first production sailboat made from recyclable composite. By integrating sustainability criteria for sails into the Class rules, and carefully selected equipment designed for intensive offshore use, the Sun Fast 30 One Design marks a major step towards eco-responsible boating.
