TP52 Zen has been meticulously optimised and refined to compete at the highest level under both IRC and ORC rating rules. Recently undergoing a full refurbishment, Zen boasts an extensive list of upgrades across her inventory, all in preparation to proudly represent Australia at the prestigious Admiral's Cup.
Versatility is a hallmark of Zen's design. She features a dual-configuration setup:
Offshore mode with twin wheels for long-distance racing and optimal offshore handling
Inshore mode with tiller steering for lightweight, high-performance buoy racing
Whether offshore or around the cans, Zen is a proven, race-ready weapon built for serious competition.
