MAKING A FRESH WATER SPLASH- Editor H2ONotes [ 9/17/2012 - 07:03 ] # Since the launch of the first Farr 40 in 1997, this high-octane
grand-prix class has grown to 160 boats sailed in 20 countries. The
well-organized class is run like a business, and the ensuing
international competition has led the fleet around the globe to race in
many of the sailing world’s most iconic venues: San Francisco, Miami,

Mexico, Monaco, Turkey and the U.S.A.), will compete on fast-paced and
technically demanding courses, with the first starting signal scheduled
to be given daily at 11:00 a.m. more...
