PROJECT

Racer/Cruiser optimised for IRC racing, created for a former customer willing to race mid range regattas and enjoy fast speed sailing with family and friends. The IRC48 is a hardcore racer with modern comfortable interior and superb construction quality; built entirely in carbon fiber and epoxy resin consolidated under vacuum with a 75 deg post cure. Its Modern style directly derived from V70 features a large immerse transom with hard chines. Its clean and yet stylish deck geometry allow comfortable sailing while racing or cruising. Powered by a generous sail plan, square top main sail and big asymmetric on its fixed pulpit the IRC48 is the perfect racer! Featuring a telescopic keel allows the IRC48 to reduce its draft from 3.4m to 2.4 without interior space loses.
