Designer’s Notes
Don Tate of Maryland, with Pekka Koskenkyla formerly of Nautor Swan in Finland, came to Farr Yacht Design early in 1986 with a line of production-built luxury cruising yachts in mind. Emerging as the front-runner of this line was an 80 footer for Don Tate. The "concept" was for a super comfortable world cruiser capable of being handled by as few as two people on shorter journeys due to extensive use of electronics and hydraulics. For production capabilities a female mould was used in laying up the single skin GRP hull which is formed primarily of unidirectional E-glass laminates over top hat frames and bulkheads with PVC foam core in the sides. The winged keel maintains a high level of performance providing the up wind stability and low leeway angles of a deep keel with the benefit of shallow draft in cruising excursions. The rudder is simple and efficient with a partial skeg.
