Figaro

Fully tested and now in production, the Figaro 3 meets ISO/World Sailing Category A standards, ensuring it's built for serious offshore adventure.

🔹 First Foiling One-Design Production Monohull
 World’s first production monohull with foils, not keels or canting systems, in a one-design offshore racing format.

The foils provide lift and stability, improving speed and reducing drag—especially effective when sailing upwind and reaching.

🔹 Designed for Solo and Short-Handed Offshore Racing
 Purpose-built for solo and doublehanded racing like the La Solitaire du Figaro.

Every detail—layout, sail plan, and ergonomics—supports ease of handling under extreme conditions by just one or two sailors.

🔹 VPLP Naval Architecture
 Designed by Van Peteghem Lauriot-Prévost (VPLP), one of the world’s leading offshore racing yacht designers (responsible for Vendée Globe winners).

The hull shape is both powerful and efficient, optimized for speed and sea-keeping.

🔹 Balanced Rig and Sail Plan
 Equipped with a deck-stepped mast set further aft and a square-top mainsail, creating a balanced and powerful sail plan.

Twin rudders and a deep keel give excellent control and tracking, even at high speeds.

🔹 One-Design Integrity
 Strict class rules mean all boats are identical, ensuring racing is about skill, not technology advantages.

Encourages a level playing field for competitive offshore racers.

🔹 ISO Category A Certification
 Built to Category A (Ocean) standards, making it suitable for serious offshore conditions.
