The Contest 67CS marks the first steps in a long-term collaboration with the German design team judel/vrolijk & co. Quick with such simple control, both upwind and downwind, she is remarkably stable and easy to sail by short-handed crew, making long trips or participation in regattas just as easy. Francasi has her owner's cabin at the front and two large guest cabins with double beds at the back. Each cabin has its own toilet and shower. She also accommodates 2 crew members in the forepeak, completely separated from the owner's cabin and the guest cabin. She comes with a carbon rig and roller reef in V-boom. Except for the mainsail, all other sails are hydraulically rolled and operated from the helm. She comes with a full spec and is ready for new owners for more adventures at sea.
