Farr 30 AU $68,000

Boat detail
Price AU $68,000
Length 9.42m  |  31ft
Location Rushcutters Bay
Year 1996

An absolute weapon of a boat.

The Farr 30 is still the fastest 30 footer around, and Bandit is a good one.

New rigging, new paint, new main, she's ready to jump onto podiums straight away.

There is a reason that these boats have been held in such high esteem for so long, and that is simply because they are fun!
The fastest boat in the super 30 fleet, they deliver on the race course- untouchable in the light, planing once the breeze comes up.

Listed due to a change of circumstance, Bandit's owners have done all the hard work in getting her ready for you.
After six months in the shed, she has emerged with a slick grey two pac paint job, a rebuilt engine, her ring frames tabbed to the hull, all through hull fittings removed and reglassed, her hull deck join resealed and her rudder dropped and serviced. She is absolutely good to go, and with an IRC cert of 1.054 she will have you competing with the big boys at a fraction of the cost.

Whether its Wednesday twilighting or cleaning up at Airlie and Hammo, this is a great chance to own a very, very fun boat!

Moored in Rushcutters' Bay, please contact Campbell Geeves at Flagstaff Marine to arrange an inspection.
