Beneteau Figaro 3


2021 launch Beneteau Figaro 3 'Intiy' now for sale.

The Figaro BENETEAU 3 is the first production foiling one-design monohull ever to be designed. A distillation of technology and innovation, it results from a collaboration between group BENETEAU's best experts and the VPLP design office, the architects of the two last boats to win the Vendée Globe.

MODERNITY, RELIABILITY AND PERFORMANCE

The specifications define the FB3 monohull as being as reliable as its predecessor, the FB2. It is equipped with foils, a better performing ballast-free hull, a more slender and deeper keel, a setback mast and a more extensive and larger sail plan.

THE FOILS

Contrary to Imoca 60 foils, the FB3 foils will have an inward-facing profile. The way they operate is different. They are versatile foils that create drift reduction and improve the boat's righting moment, without increasing the movement, which improves the boat's performance.

THE KEEL

Deep, with a straight blade, it creates minimum drag. Supplementary drift reduction is provided by the foils.

THE HULL

Made of foam sandwich, fibreglass and polyester infused resin, it corresponds to current designs and is ballast-free.

MAST AND SAIL LAYOUT

Similar to the Imoca 60s, the mast is set back, providing balance under sail. This allows the use of high performance sails and the addition of a bowsprit. Solo sailors will sail with a square-top mainsail, a genoa and a jib, but also a masthead spinnaker (105 m² (=125 yd²) to gain speed in a light breeze) and a small gennaker.

Intiy is a fine example, and hull number 63 of this very popular class, handed over new to her Australian owner in May 2021. She is fully equipped with a comprehensive North Sails package inline wiith the global one design class rules, the full NKE offshore instrument package including autopilot, wind, speed, depth, computer with all tuning guides, Australian Category 3 safety gear and anything else needed to go Ocean racing.

The owner has purchased another Figaro 3 and intends to race the one design class in Europe providing an excellent opportunity for a short handed racing enthusiast to step on and have a lot of fast fun.

Available to inspect at the RPAYC in Newport, Sydney.
