FARR Yacht Design 280 (sailboat) for sale

A Great chance to grab a fine example of the Farr 280.
Ready to compete in the HP 30 class/IRC/ORC or any sports boat division around the world, if fast and fun is what you are after this is the boat for you.
She still has her inboard engine making getting to the race course a breeze.
Pandemonium has been professionally maintained from new, and benefits from a fantastic sail wardrobe.
She has also had many quality of life upgrades done such as new forehatch and many waterproofing solutions.
I have sailed on this boat so give me a call to discuss further.
