Swarbrick S80

The S80 is a proven one-design race yacht delivering close, tactical fleet racing and great upwind performance. Designed for competitive club and class racing, the S80 rewards skilled helming and crews while remaining simple and cost-effective to run.

Vintage Red is fully set up for competitive racing. It has a complete set of sails plus all the needed racing equipment, is class compliant, well maintained, and represents an excellent opportunity to enter the S80 fleet. The hull was repainted and is in excellent condition. It has new rigging (< 18 mths), and the latest S80 class mast section. All running gear, race instrumentation and safety gear (incl EPIRB) is in good condition. Deck cleats replaced recently. Inside is clean and well fitted out.

Why the S80
o Strong one-design fleet with equal equipment -- results come down to skills.
o Fast, responsive, and easy to sail.
o Clean, efficient deck layout, and great fun to sail.
o Low running and maintenance costs, and good resale demand.
o Our community of sailors is a very welcoming group.

Vintage Red is currently wet penned at SoPYC on Jetty 7. We want to see the boat regularly racing with our fleet, so have reduced the price to $6,500. If you are thinking of upgrading your boat, or want to get into one design racing now is your time to act.

You will be joining a terrific one-design competitive racing fleet, and will have a great time with support and encouragement from other S80 fleet owners and sailors. Our sailing calendar is full of variety and social events.
