Design #320 Farr 60 Pilot House
in virtually all weather conditions enables owners to explore the worlds oceans at will.
Rig
As standard, the Farr 60 Pilot House is fitted with a fully automated sail handling system. The hydraulic in-mast furling rig from Selden, together with the hydraulic furling headsail system, hydraulic furling staysail and four powered winches give you complete push button control from the safety of the cockpit.
The furling staysail is ideal when the wind rises above 25 knots. It enables you to sail the yacht in comfort with reduced sail but without loss of speed, ideal when cruising short handed. There is a Navtec manual hydraulic package fitted that controls the vang, babystay and backstay from the cockpit.
There are many options for rig packages including a standard, more conventional mast with a fully battened main and lazy jack, carbon rig for those who want that extra bit of performance or the new generation on In boom furling systems. The full detailed technical specification with drawings and plans is available on request.
Deck
The screw less teak laid deck with teak capping fixed on the top of the cockpit coaming and the bulwark immediately give the impression of quality. When you look at the deck layout on the Farr 60 you can see this as been designed with practicality in mind.
There is a large anchor locker forward which easily holds the 80m of chain that is standard with the boat in addition to the warps and fenders which are stowed there. The workshop/sail locker area is immediately aft allowing easy launching of the MPS, the only sail that you have to go on deck to set.
Moving aft the cockpit with its fixed table is the control center of the yacht. The winch controls, furling controls, bow thruster, etc. are all conveniently placed on the steering pedestal. The winches surround the cockpit coaming and are all positioned so that they can be easily used from either inside or outside the
