Farr 1020 Association

THE FARR 1020 RACING–CRUISING KEELBOAT

The Farr 1020 is a one design 10.2 meter racing/cruising keelboat that originated from the drawing board of Bruce Farr in 1983. One hundred and fifty yachts have been built and launched over the ensuing years. Today the Farr 1020 is a recognized National Keelboat class in New Zealand..

The Farr 1020 is a top handling racer and also a very comfortable cruiser and as such it meets the requirement of the seriously competitive sailor and yet is appointed to a high standard to meet the demands of the discriminating cruising family.

The Farr 1020 Owners Association is charged with the responsible of maintaining the integrity of the class and has authority over all Class Restrictions and Rules of the Farr 1020 class throughout New Zealand. The Association also ensures that National Championships are held annually as a requirement of the National Class status, and maintains boat championship and ownership records.

While most Farr 1020s are located in the North Island of NZ, a number can be found further south and also in Australia, USA, Pacific Islands and in the Northern Hemisphere.

The Farr 1020 Owners Association encourages all owners to join the Association to strengthen it’s membership base, and provide the Association with the ability to better promote the Farr 1020 class to maintain it’s popularity and value, for the benefit of all owners.
