Orca 40 | seglar

Nu har man provseglat Orca 40. Ser ju helt ok ut!!! Den som är extra nyfiken kan säkert prata med Bamse Ringhagen som har extra bra koll på Orcan!
We are happy to announce the first Orca 40 is launched and sailing. She is proving to be very fast in all conditions and we can not wait to sail against the other Class40`s. The owner, Richard Tolkien is now sailing her to the Solent, UK and is planning to do the Middle sea Race on his way.
We were slightly too stiff for the Class40 certificate (330kg on top of the mast) so we had to take 58kg of led out of the bulb. The measured displacement of the first boat was 4710kg before the led was removed, meaning we are at 4.650kg with all the electronics installed (PC, fleet33, instruments, Navtex, radar with a big GPS display, double autopilots…, 15l of fuel and quite some extra comfort (double cooker, cloth lockers, etc.) and safety (two watertight bulkheads with hatches…).
The boat is perfectly balanced and great fun to sail!

Sweet… Orca Class 40
