A Unique Boat - A Unique Opportunity CHARIAD is Hull #1 of Bruce Farr’s Farr 37 series designed to be highly competitive in light to moderate conditions such as those in Mass Bay, Long Island, and the Chesapeake Bay

The boat’s first owner was Bert Jabin owner of Jabin’s Yacht Yard the largest marina in Annapolis, MD.

The Farr 37 is a balanced combination of on-board cruising and racing performance. The boat has been modified to enhance its cruising comforts. The Edson steering wheel making cruising easy and the Raymarine auto pilot makes long distance cruising easy. The galley includes a 2-burner stove, fresh water and salt water to the sink.

CHARIAD’s regularly used sail inventory includes a L/M #1 and Heavy #1 and Code IS and Code 2S spinnakers. The boat has race quality sails for each category and for most a backup ‘practice/cruising” sail. The practice sails are in good condition but retired from the racing inventory. No poor-quality sails are included. CHARIAD has a full North Sails racing inventory.

The one important impression that does not come from the list of sails is the quality of the main. It is the oldest actively used sail on the boat, but it is in excellent condition with four full length battens. The main has not been updated because it remains a competitive sail in great condition.

The Code 4S spinnaker is seldom used and is in good condition. The #3 Jib is also seldom used and is in excellent condition.

All sail purchases were made off season so a “2018 spinnaker” is first used in 2019. The 2018 and 2019 spinnakers have had little use because of the COVID limitations on racing. The practice sails have been used for most of racing in 2020 and 2021. CHARIAD only races on weekend regatta’s and does not do the midweek racing. Her sail inventory has had less use that most Marblehead boats
