Overview
About this vessel
INO NOIR is a refined example of modern racing design, demonstrating what free thinking can achieve within a closed rule. Engineered with a lightweight composite hull and advanced carbon construction, she delivers exceptional stiffness, optimised weight distribution, and outstanding power to weight. The hull geometry and precision balanced appendages are designed to maximize hydrodynamic performance across a wide range of conditions.
The deck layout reflects meticulous attention to competitive sailing, offering an ergonomic and highly efficient working environment for crew operations during high-intensity manoeuvres. Below deck, the interior is purpose-built for offshore racing, prioritizing functionality, structural integrity, and compliance with international racing standards while remaining comfortable and dry at sea.
INO NOIR combines technical sophistication with practical race-readiness, demonstrating outstanding upwind capability and downwind speed. She is a testament to the highest level of carbon engineering and design execution, ideal for classic 600-mile races or high-level inshore regattas--without requiring a large crew.
