Farr 395 is a 39 ′ 4 ″ / 12 m monohull sailboat designed by Bruce Farr and built by Carroll Marine between 2000 and 2003.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

Farr 395 One-Design – 2002 BOTY Overall Winner

• By Carl Schumacher
• Updated: October 25, 2001

When the judges walked down the dock to take our first look at the Farr 395, the excitement was like a Christmas morning. The Farr Office has a reputation for delivering fast racing boats, and Carroll Marine is no stranger to the winner’s circle of Sailing World’s Boat of the Year competition having 7 previous awards, including the Overall winner in 1998 –the Farr 40 One-Design.

Viewed from the dock, the 395 has a purposeful but well-proportioned look. Some purists might not like the plumb bow and short overhang aft but that’s the look of the new millennium and it helps to create a faster, higher volume boat for the LOA. The profile angles are in concert with each other and the cabin house is well styled. All of the judges gave the boat good marks for aesthetics.

Our next step was to analyze the ergonomics. Overall, the cockpit was comfortable. The seatback angles were a little vertical for dockside lounging, but were as good or better than most of the boats we tested. The helm seat area will accommodate many different sitting styles. The large wheel diameter makes steering the boat nice. You can sit on the weather rail and watch the waves and jib telltales, or you can steer to leeward in light airs. The foot braces for the helmsman are well located and it’s easy to lock yourself into position. One interesting innovation in the cockpit is a removable cockpit locker/seat that comprises the after portion of the seats. When removed, the locker is replaced by a stainless-steel footrest for the mainsail trimmer. This allows flexibility in the cockpit layout although when sailing and sitting up on the side deck, I actually found it more comfortable to leave the seat in. By keeping my feet firmly on the seat, my thigh wasn’t resting on the mainsheet. The side decks are wide it’s easy to move around this boat.

One small quibble that fellow judge Lynn Bowser and I noticed was that, while standing at the wheel you had to duck your head under the backstay if the cylinder was fully extended. There’s a solution for this though, the backstay has a quick release from the cylinder so that while going downwind in light air you can disconnect it and run it forward.

One reason it was so easy to feel comfortable on this boat was the hardware selection and layout. The decisions were obviously made by someone that goes racing. Just looking at the organization of the control lines and winches brought a smile to my face. They didn’t try to be fancy or innovative, instead they used systems that have been tried, tested and found true. I really liked their use of the mainsheet system that has been labeled the “German Admiral’s Cup” style. This system carries the sheet forward along each side of the boom to the gooseneck and then down to the deck near the chainplates. From here it runs back to a winch by the traveler. When you have a sail large enough to require winches this works great. The obvious advantage is that you have the control of the mainsheet and traveler at one location. Also, during windy jibes, a crewmember at the mast can help the mainsail trimmer by overhauling the mainsheet. The sheet is led above the deck and while not as “trick” as running the sheet under deck, it has less friction. Another little touch I liked was leading the main outhaul from its 12:1 purchase inside the boom to a swivel base cam cleat by the companionway. This allows fingertip adjustment from several locations.

Lynn noted that the cockpit needed a net at the front side of the wheel well to keep lines and other paraphernalia from getting caught in the steering wheel, but that could easily be added. My only quibble was the use of the old-style Harken blocks for the mainsheet. When I asked a representative from Farr International about this he said they were trying to maintain cost of the boat against some of the other low cost competitors. In a boat that will cost over $250K by the time you go sailing, saving a couple of hundred dollars in blocks seems trivial. I must admit that what they have will work, it just doesn’t look “cool” compared to the rest of the boat. Now I know the reader must be saying at this point that I have raised a very insignificant item, and they are absolutely correct. That just shows how good a job they have done with this boat that we had to look this close to find something to complain about.

Stepping through the companionway to go down below was a continuation of the same theme as the rest of the boat; nothing radical, just proven concepts done correctly. The finish is good, the layout is simple and the result is very comfortable at both dockside and at sea. The head has 2 entrances so one can enter it from the aft cabin without disturbing the forward cabin. The forward vee berth is actually long enough to sleep someone, which was rare in other boats we looked at.

There is an option for enclosing the quarter berth on the port side and making an aft stateroom. I’ve been on the one boat that’s been built with this option and the difference in feel of the interior between these layouts is huge. I much prefer the open layout and it seems that most buyers agree.

After completing our dockside inspection, all of us were eager to see how the 395 performed in her element. First, we looked at the boat’s powering characteristics: We looked for ease of steering at speed, maneuverability, and tracking in reverse. The 395 passed all these tests with flying colors.

Once we’d completed the powering tests, we raised sail in about 9 knots of breeze. The boat just came to life. We did some simulated pre-start maneuvers and found the boat controllable and quick to accelerate. Sail adjustments were easy to operate and to get a feel for the different cockpit configurations, we tried one side with the cockpit locker in place and the other side with the stainless steel foot brace mounted. I thought it was easier to work the main on the side with the seat, and didn’t think other side gave any better access to the jib winches. Others may disagree.

After sailing upwind for a while it was time to test the Farr’s downwind capability. The one-design class allows for a choice of 2 masthead asymmetric spinnakers set from a retractable sprit. We had the small one aboard, but this still had plenty of horsepower. Fellow judge Chuck Allen found the boat “easy to steer on reaches without losing the rudder”. He wanted to use the larger–mostly in the shoulders–spinnaker, but I’ve yet to meet a sailmaker that didn’t want more sail area! The boat has obvious breakaway potential and wanted to leap on any wave it could find. We dropped the kite and rounded a “leeward mark”, easily but Chuck thought he could feel the rudder stall as he made the tight turn. Care in steering is the price you pay for high aspect ratio foils and Chuck still gave the 395 an enthusiastic thumbs up.

Farr International has come up with a truly fine boat with the 395. It’s great example of a racing boat that one could really cruise. Throw in a one-design class well managed by Farr International, a PHRF handicap of 30-36 and the 395 has many venues for competition. This kind of boat, however, comes with a price tag. Out of the several good boats in the 30-40 foot Racer/cruiser category this year, this was the most expensive at a base price of $222,000. Still, we concurred that, if you have the budget to support it, the 395 is the obvious choice.

Farr 395, J/120, J/109--any wisdom?

• Add to quote

Currently I am looking for a boat for around-the-buoy racing on the Chesapeake. I expect to also cruise around the Bay and maybe beyond the bay later. How far I will ultimately go I don't know. So now, I am considering Farr 395 (have seen some built in 2000-2002, hull # in the mid 20s), J/120 (1998-2001 vintage), or J/109 (2003 or slightly newer) -- relatively fast racer/cruisers. Performance-wise, Farr 395 appeals to me but I have some concerns about the known hull problems. (The potential candidates evidently all had the class-recommended modifications done.) The available J/109s tend to be newer than J/120 (can't afford a newer J/120). The early J/120s also had some hull (keel attachment) problems, but the problem evidently was addressed after the first 25 hulls. I have not found any serious problems common to J/109s mentioned. It is a bit smaller but appears to be still plenty fast (been on one but have not sailed one). It seems like a very nice size. (My wife will prefer this.) The gear presumably would be less expensive to maintain, and the sails are definitely not as heavy to lug around. (My wife will definitely prefer this.) However, with a racing crew on long races, it may be a bit more cramped. I've read a bit about C&C 110s (sprit version) but haven't pursued it as much, but perhaps I should. I've been on a C&C 115, and the interior looked beautiful. I assume that these boats are all offshore rated, but I have heard (sometimes from boat brokers selling Js) that J boats are more rugged. In theory, they are comparable in terms of their abilities to take the pounding. That's in theory, and I don't have enough experience to judge how much pounding they can really take, assuming, of course, that the hull and rigging are in good shape at the outset. BTW, I am not contemplating circumnavigating the globe, but anything can happen. Any wisdom? Thanks for any information, thoughts, or leads for other ideas. Jim  

We JUST finished a race with several of the boats listed above. I will not say that this is indicitive of the boat necessarily, because I am not sure the crews were evenly matched (did I say that nicely)?? SO, here is what I saw: The fastest boat was the Tartan 4100. There are known hull problems with these boats too. In fact, the boat I saw had also had a hull repair done. But, they are beautiful performance boats and do pretty good in a race with enough crew. The Farr 39 did ok. It still looked the faster boat and in different curcumstances, I think it would have outrun the Tartan. But the crew was pretty long in tooth on the Farr and the Tartan had like 15 people there to trim and throw over the side for rail meat!!! Come to think of it, not sure we counted that they finished with 15 people... hmmmmm (snicker). A very good racing boat that is very fast and relatively inexpensive is the Henderson 30. Whew. I was surprised at how well she runs. Not great accomodations for cruising... to be forewarned. But for the money and the speed (PHRF around 40 I think), she is going to be a tough girl to beat. THere is one for sale in CA right now that I have to say, caught my eye. Even came with a trailoer if you want to start loading her up and getting mroe competitive. I will certainly fall in the minority here but this has been the discussion amongst the mods (in private) for a while now. In a perfect world, I would have two boats - one for cruising and one for racing. I liked the Melges for racing, but short of the 32, it would not be something I would take for any of the longer offshore races. John Pollard owned a Melges and he said it was a pretty wet ride and that would get pretty old after the first day for me. But for distance racing (offshore) if you really want to have fun, I think a trailer is about mandatory unless you have a crew to sail her all over for you. Seriously - consider that. Because if you have a trailer, you can enter into the Ft Lauderdale - Key West, Tampa Key west, Tampa - Havanna, Naples - Jamaica, (some great races out of Texas to Mexico and Key West or havanna... but I have not done them). Maybe even get into some of the Bermuda races??? But that would be local to you. Problem I have found is that what I (me, not some people) think makes a good cruising boat, often does not line up well with a great buoy boat or distance racer. And if you get competitive and have to fight a PHRF against dry docked boats that are covered in carbon fiber, you will lose before you cross the start line (as we found out many times). SO there are my thoughts. I have raced several times on a j92 but not the others mentioned, though I have been on them and ewwed and awwed, but other can speak more intelligently about them. But I would not take either one of those J's cruising (my opinion... sorry). But I don't even care for the J42 for cruising so my opinion on them may need to be discarded. If you are stuck with the boats you metioned, I would choos the Farr. I have become a fan of their boats (thanks to Jeff who is our expert in these areas and owns a Farr, so see if he can help when he gets back). If you want opinins on a boat that is a good performance cruiser/racer, let me know and I will throw out some thoughts. Just be forewardned that I don't think many of them are really that competitive on a racing circut without a generous PHRF. Its flat out hard to beat a Melges or Henderson or Farr no matter what the correction. Brian  

The J/109s had a keel issuse in the early hulls that and who payed Jboats or TPI or the owner  

I did some looking around and found that there are some builder supplied repair kits to be installed, evidently at the builder's expense. It is sort of a recall.  

Thanks, Brian and Tommays, I agree that I am trying to find one boat to do more than it is optimum for: I suspect that most of these boats are probably best for club races and short cruises (in and around Chesapeake Bay and Delmarva Peninsula for me). For now, I am considering a good racer (around-the-buoy and up and down the Bay) and seeing how far I can take it in terms of my racing and cruising skills with one of these racer/cruisers. At this point in my search, my main concern is the boat's ability to weather tough situations if I should encounter one and whether there are known problems common to a particular boat. In particular, I'd like to know what it takes to overcome the Farr 395 hull problem and if the typical fixes are adequate. Any information and thoughts on that would be appreciated. I will certainly look into Henderson 30 (I don't think I have seen one here) and into J/109's hull problems. (I hadn't heard that before -- I would have thought JBoats would have fixed that type of problems after the J/120s). Yes, it would be hard to judge the relative speed if the crew work is uneven. It's hard to sail a boat to its numbers, but if everyone did, Farr 395 might be a bit faster on flat waters than J/120 and vice versa in heavier seas, from the weight differentials and somewhat different hull shapes, etc.  

Given that, I would put the Henderson 30 on my very, very short list. Minimal investment and fast. You would be a competitor. You will notice it is a 30 foot boat, but she races with much larger boats. She is not as popular as some of the others, but that might pay to your advantage. Issues will be on the distance races where waterline kicks in. But on a buoy race, that shorter and more nimble boat may take the marks. Just some thoughts. Brian  

Another thing. There are a number of dry sailed boats in this area (some with paid crew members). That would be way out of my league! I suppose cleaning the bottom frequently is no picnic in terms of cost, either. I am starting with baby steps, through.  

THe J's IMHO would be the better offshore boat. There are a few local ones that have done the Vic-Maui. THere is a local ie salish sea/puget/sound 109 on its way around the globe. I believe there is a blog clickable on the local -boat dealers web site. We also have a F395 local. Very pretty boat. and fast! It would be on a short list for me if I was looking for a 40' boat. THere are also some Farr 39's local, different creature than the 395. More like a M32 on steroids. The 395 is more like a J120 but with a few less interior niceties. Frankly, a Farr 39 or 395 should be able to spank a T4100! I would say the T had a better crew in some way shape or form. The F395 recently spanked a few F39's in a local race at my YC. Marty

If anyone is really bored, here are a bunch of pics of our last race. You will see that Farr, Henderson, Tartan, and lots others in there. 2010 Summerset Regatta | news-press.com | Southwest Florida Sports | The News-Press Brian  

Brian, You have some points re the Henderson. There are a few here in PugetSOund too. WHile quicker than my 30' Jeanneau, at a race last weekend and March, I was able to keep up and sometimes out do some upwards of 38-44' boats on short legs, but when the legs got into the 2-3+ mile range, WL took over. I had no problems last spring as did a Cat30 with the 2 40+foot Catalina's on shorter leg courses, usually not only beating them handily on handicap, usually boat for boat. BUT, both the C30 and I had our race crews, not sure the bigger cats had a race crew per say. Marty  

The J120 at our club raced to Bermuda for, I think, it's fifth time this past June. That would seem to indicate pretty solid construction. Her results also indicate a fast boat; they win a good bit of silver most seasons The kind of sailing you describe wanting to do is one of the reasons J/109's are popular. I crewed on one at Block Island Race Week in June, and the owner cruised there again with his wife at the end of July. There are three at our club now, after one member replaced his J/92 with one. J/boat construction seems to be pretty good overall. Older is also a possible way to go. Our '81 J/36 is still holding up well, and holding our own against the newer boats. We got a third and a second in series racing this summer, in a fleet that includes the aforementioned J/109's, a J/105, a Beneteau 36.7, some C&C's and an SC37. We're thinking a new set of sails (our main is 8 years old) may help bump us up a notch.  

I've raced inshore and offshore on J109s, J120s and Farr395s over past 4 years so have a fairly good feel for each. Firstly all are good boats so I don't think you can go wrong. They are however not like for like comparisons. The J109 is great for a couple since it is less powerful. It will be cheaper to maintain (sails & berthing) and probably newer. Being smaller it does not have the room of the bigger boats for cruising or crew accomm if you plan to race offshore. The J120 is very popular so you won't have diffculty finding advice/benchmarks on how best to set yourself up. It's solid and fast upwind and down. Being bigger than the J109 you'll also feel more comfortable in less than ideal conditions and of course get their faster. The Farr395 is less popular due to something like only 40 or so being built. I prefer the interior to the J120 but this is personal. It is lighter yet carries more sail upwind than a J120. If you plan to race you will be seeing more King 40s, J133s, X41s etc than J120s in your division. For a given race crew the Farr395 will be faster than a J120 will be faster than a J109. If you have a full crew and want to push hard - go with the Farr395 it hauls on the course but is comfortable for the BBQ afterwards. If you want to cruise/race shorthanded I'd say J109. A bit of both with a mixed crew the J120 sits nicely in between. Re: build quality. I've not seen anything of lingering major concern on any of them. Yep there were some problems - they were addressed but perhaps just as importantly the problem was admitted and warnings issues. Better the devil you know. As I said earlier - all good boats an you'd be a proud owner of any of them. My vote given I like to race first and cruise second. I like to go offshore. I usually race in a crew of 7 or 8 but sometimes we get 12. I like to finish sooner so I can get a good berth and get home sooner. In a blow I like to be on a bigger faster boat - to get home sooner, stay drier and feel safer. I like a boat that sleeps 10 if it really has to. I like to hit 20kts (but not for too long). So for me I'd chose the Farr395.  

This one could be an option: Very good racing results in Europe. It is an offshore boat with a great cruising interior: 2006 Salona Yachts Salona 37 Sail Boat For Sale - www.pnb.yachtworld.com Regards Paulo  

Mark, Re the T4100 thought, you have to read CD's 2nd post in this thread, where he mentions a T4100 out ran an F39! altho it may have been the crew too! So yes, a T4100 should get spanked by F39's! Then as you point out, I probably should have used an M/F30 as the boat on steroids per say. Then again, maybe not speed wise, but the boats interior etc is on steroids. Looks like you are doing ok at the GP this weekend on VC. Hopefully you can stay ahead of shrek and catch tachyon. The other boats I know are not doing well, ie kiwi is getting spanked, Shoot the moon is not doing as well as they have been at WBRW and PSSC a few weeks back. off to a ski intructor dryland clinic.............booooooooring!  

Not to hijack, but I have to talk to you about the skiing thing... I'll PM when I have a moment.

The Farr 39ml is a 39.0ft fractional sloop designed by Bruce Farr and built in fiberglass by Cookson Boats (NZ) since 1995.

The Farr 39ml is a light sailboat which is a very high performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a racing boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
