GP 42 ROMA

2006

In August of 2005 the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC) introduced the GP42 Level Class. Farr Yacht Design played a key role in the development of the rule, providing comments and guidance from the preliminary proposal stage through to the issuance of interpretations to better define the rule after it was officially issued. Latini Marine immediately came to Farr Yacht Design to commission the first of this very promising and exciting class. Farr Yacht Design has had unparalleled success designing box rule boats and applied that knowledge and experience to the GP 42. Exceptional light wind performance will be a hallmark of these designs.
