Pre-Purchase Inspection

'Hollywood Boulevard' is a high-performance IRC racer from Farr Yacht Design. She was launched in 2008, originally known as Living Doll and built to outpace TP52s with more waterline, better handling, and a competitive handicap. Designed using CFD insights from the Volvo 70 and GP42 programs, and equipped with twin rudders, she delivers outstanding control and speed across all conditions.

Her race record includes wins at Hamilton Island Race Week, Skandia Geelong Week, Airlie Beach Race Week, and a 2nd place finish in the 2011 Sydney to Hobart.

After a racing break from 2019 to 2023, she underwent a major systems refit, including a serviced mast, all-new Lightspeed carbon standing rigging, and a full hydraulic and hardware overhaul. If you are looking for a serious IRC performer with proven results, fully race-ready and turnkey, then look no further! Lock in your private inspection today.
