2007 • Beneteau First 10R

Designed by Farr Yacht Design, the 2007 Beneteau First 10R was built to win. Her powerful, easily driven hull, efficient sail plan, and precise, balanced helm deliver the kind of upwind pointing and downwind acceleration that turns close finishes in your favor. She's quick to respond, rewarding to trim, and forgiving enough that your crew can focus on tactics instead of fighting the boat. For the racer who wants legitimate speed without the cost and complexity of a grand prix program, the 10R hits the sweet spot. The Pacific Northwest offers one of the richest racing calendars on the West Coast, and the 10R is ready for all of it. Tune up on Wednesday night beer can races, then line up for classics like Round the County, Race to the Straits, the Vashon Island Race, and Swiftsure. Her light-air performance keeps you moving when the breeze goes soft in the lee of the islands, while her stiffness and control let you push hard when a westerly builds in the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Few waters test a boat and crew more thoroughly, and few boats answer the challenge as well. Best of all, the 10R is a proven, competitive platform that doesn't require a professional crew to sail well. A committed amateur team can get her up to speed quickly and stay competitive race after race. If you're ready to move up, step into a more capable boat, or finally chase the pickle dish, this First 10R is your next winning program. Schedule a test sail and feel the difference from the helm.
