Overview
About this vessel
The Farr 1104 represents the final stage in the development of the safe, efficient, easily handled fractional rig without running backstays which is now a feature of most of Farr's modern fast cruising yachts, and which has been successfully copied by many other cruising and One Design Racing boats.
This design also proved to the world that Farr had developed a new style of ocean racing yacht that exhibited superior all round speed and significantly better handling characteristics than any previous boat.
The success of these boats spawned many others including SWEET OKOLE — winner 1977 SORC, 1981 Transpac; 45 DEGREES SOUTH II 1st 1976 New Zealand One Ton Championship (under the name of THE NUMBER) — 4th 1976 World One Ton Championships; and PICCOLO — winner 1976 Sydney to Hobart Classic.
This Farr 1104 has been set up to cruise and has had many updates and additions. The fiberglass hull is in excellent condition, as expected by the Farrs.
