A Farr 38, One Ton Champion, originally named Jenny H. Now named Azzurra because she's so blue and shares home port with Il Moro di Venezia. Built in New Zealand 1977 for Ray Haslar to race in the Sydney-Hobart, Southern Cross series and World One-Ton Championships. Construction is cold molded, epoxy Kauri wood 3 layers 1/8th each. Kauri is a unique and rare New Zealand tree so perfect for boats and so limited in availability that it became nearly extinct and no longer can be used for boat construction. Strong, buoyant, light displacement, about 9,500 pounds (4,400 kg) tall aluminum mast 57 feet, with new Navtec rod rigging, powerful mainsail, fractional head sail. Accelerates fast, wide beam depends on crew balance for optimum speed and direction, flat bottom for flying speed down wind if you have the courage for it. Farr Yacht Design
