The new Sun Fast 3200 has been winning both races and plaudits in Europe. Now for the first time it will be on show in Australia at Sydney International Boatshow.

Conceived by award winning designer Daniel Andrieu, the Sun Fast 3200 is a whole new concept in production cruiser-racers that are offshore capable.

The innovative design concept incorporates such features such as a bow prodder for flying asymmetric kites, twin-rudder and full width traveller.

This is a yacht designed to be equally at home racing around the cans as it is raced offshore short-handed and so impressed the judges that it was awarded 'European Yacht of the Year' in its size division.

Below the Sun Fast 3200 is quite remarkable for a yacht of its size in terms of space. With two full doubles aft, it also has a level of finish that makes it very comfortable for a yacht of this style.

Built using the latest infusion technology for optimum strength to weight ratio of both deck and hull, the Sun Fast 3200 sets new standards in production cruiser-racers.

The integrity of the construction has already been well tested when 16 Sun Fast 3200s raced two-handed across the Atlantic in the Transquadra. The race included one Australian entry whose owners cannot say enough positive things about this exciting yacht.

Come and see the Sun Fast 3200 on the marina at the Sydney International Boat Show.
