Beneteau: First Series: First 10R

It was a "gauntlet" thrown down by Beneteau that Farr Yacht Design couldn't resist. "Let's design a fast, fun, facile competitor!" And racers who have competed with the First 10R believe the challenge has been met. Critics agree the sleek, open design, powerful sail plan, asymmetrical spinnaker and iron blade/lead bulb combo keel have earned this boat a Beneteau pedigree. A unique combination of infusion and injection techniques have allowed Farr Yacht Design and Beneteau to optimize their proprietary "one slot" hull molding process for the First 10R, firmly mating hull and structural grid while giving Beneteau engineers precise control over shape and displacement. Every aspect of this design, from the new hull form and appendage concepts, a high aspect carbon fiber Hall Spars mast to finely engineered weight distribution, contributes to the goal of producing the finest, well-rounded boat available. None of the character of the luxurious Beneteau First Series has been sacrificed to devise this new racer. While the perfect weight distribution around the center of gravity optimizes the performance of the First 10R, her fully functional galley, seperate head and full sized navigation station round out the "creature comforts" of her accommodations. Luxuries aside, this is a racing boat, designed by racers to win.
