Farr 7500
**PRICE REDUCED** The Farr 7500 is a popular trailer sailer designed by one of the great sailboat designers. Its towability allows it to sail and explore new waters rather than being constrained to the same location. It is ideal for family cruising or competitive club racing. This boat has been extensively renovated over the last few years, but sadly, due to other commitments, it has spent too little time in the water.... Then I brought a much larger boat!

I towed the boat extensively in the past in SA and launched at many destinations. The new owner will need to have the trailer inspected by an authorised Tasmanian mechanic for interstate registration and will need to fit a suitable brake kit to their vehicle.

Remarks
After extensive renovation and recent repainting, this boat will exceed your expectations and is arguably one of the best examples of a Farr 7500
