Jeanneau Sun Fast 3300

Toucan - Jeanneau Sun Fast 3300 | Race Ready Offshore Performer

Toucan is an exceptionally well prepared Jeanneau Sun Fast 3300, delivered as hull number 92 and the newest example of the class to arrive in Australia.
Fresh from an outstanding podium performance in the double handed division of the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, where she also secured fourth overall, Toucan represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly turnkey offshore racing yacht. Every aspect of the boat has been refined with a clear focus on reliability, efficiency, and repeatable performance, removing the time, uncertainty, and significant expense normally required to prepare a new campaign yacht to this level.

Proven Race Results

Toucan's results speak directly to the quality of her preparation and the capability of the Sun Fast 3300 platform. Across major coastal and offshore races, she has demonstrated consistent front-of-fleet speed, excellent handling in double-handed configuration, and the durability required for demanding Australian ocean racing. These performances confirm Toucan as a genuine turnkey race winner rather than simply a well-equipped yacht.

Elite Race Specification

Toucan's specification reflects an experienced offshore racing program where performance gains, sail handling efficiency, and durability have guided every decision. The Axxon carbon mast with Ronstan track and cars, integrated 200 litre water ballast system, E bar rudder toe trim with helm side controls, and tension monitored forestay and bobstay create a highly tuneable and competitive rig platform. Extensive late 2025 updates to the running rigging, full Karver clutch replacement across all fourteen positions, cross sheeting jib arrangements, twin tack lines, staysail strong point, carbon poles, friction ring reaching systems, and upgraded runner tails collectively produce a deck layout optimised for confident shorthanded offshore sailing while retaining full crew racing capability.

Electronics and Navigation

Navigation, performance data, and onboard connectivity are equally comprehensive. A full B and G H5000 instrument suite is paired with three Garmin GNX120 Maxi mast displays and an LT 500 high accuracy compass, ensuring precise and highly visible data in all conditions. Autopilot control is available from each helm and via remote, supported by a nine-inch Zeus cockpit plotter and a Panasonic Toughbook navigation computer below. Offshore communication and power management are addressed through 4G connectivity, inverter, Wi Fi, and a high performance Starlink router, all integrated with custom antenna and safety mounting on the transom rail to create a modern race ready command environment suited to both competition and delivery sailing.

North 3Di Sail Inventory

The North 3Di sail inventory is extensive, highly competitive, and presented in excellent condition, with several sails virtually new. The wardrobe includes three mainsails, two 3Di RAW examples including one added late last year, plus a Dacron delivery main. Four headsails cover 3Di Light, AP, reefable AP, and J5 configurations, complemented by a genoa staysail. Off wind and specialty sails include A1, symmetric S1.5, A2, A4, A6, and J0 options, allowing precise optimisation across IRC race formats and a wide range of wind strengths and angles. This depth of inventory enables an incoming owner to campaign immediately at a high level without further major sail investment.
Safety and Offshore Compliance

Safety preparation is complete to full Category 1 offshore standard, including liferaft, lightweight anchoring solutions, additional water capacity, supplementary manual bilge capability, and all required inspections, certification, and compliance documentation. Completion of IRC rating processes together with stability and keel and rudder inspections represents a substantial saving in both time and cost, removing one of the most significant barriers to entering major offshore races.

Comfort, Control, and Practical Refinements

Despite her uncompromising racing focus, Toucan incorporates thoughtful refinements that materially improve endurance and usability at sea. Deck padding across helm, seating, and cockpit floor areas enhances crew security and comfort, while dual helm foot bars, lithium house power, and solar charging contribute to efficient and practical offshore operation. Numerous smaller reliability and usability improvements throughout the yacht reflect careful real world racing experience rather than purely theoretical optimisation.

A Championship Capable Sun Fast 3300

Configured in her current Hobart optimised mode, Toucan is among the lowest rated Sun Fast 3300 yachts globally while remaining exceptionally versatile. She is equally capable of winning twilight races, club championships, shorthanded offshore events, and major coastal classics, continuing the strong reputation the model has established across Australia as a modern trophy winning IRC performer.
