Described as a “modern, fast, fun, and simple design,” the FarEast 18R is targeted for casual buoy racing and as a sailing school keelboat trainer. At 18 feet, you’d think it would be more like a dinghy, but it is, by design, more like a sportboat. Photo: Walter Cooper

It’s official: J/Boats’ J/70 claims Sailing World Magazine’s 2013 Boat of the Year Award
Best Grand-Prix One-Design Photos by Walter Cooper The MC38 One Design is a complete, modern grand-prix package, swimming in carbon and composites, and designed to do nothing else but tear around the cans at high-speed. As an excellent build out of McConaghy’s Chinese operation, the MC38, is presented as the upgrade for Farr 40 owners seeking a more contemporary design, and as a more substantial boat for Melges 32 owners that don’t have the athleticism for such a boat.
