This Fauroux 50, built in 2008 by the renowned Fauroux shipyard, is a true one-off yacht, combining high performance, exceptional safety and outstanding build quality. Designed with oversized deck hardware, the boat offers maximum reliability for offshore sailing and racing alike.
The infused sandwich construction (glass/Airex) combined with a carbon mast and boom provides stiffness, light displacement and excellent sailing performance. The hull was completely repainted two years ago, and the yacht benefits from annual preventive maintenance, reflecting a very high standard of care.
The sail inventory is extensive and performance-oriented: racing mainsail, two racing spinnakers (one almost new with approx. 15 hours, the second about one year old), Code 0 and asymmetric spinnaker. A new cruising mainsail is to be planned, only due to owner’s lack of time.
Deck equipment is top level, featuring an electric winch, remaining racing manual winches, carbon bowsprit, carbon gangway, carbon cockpit table, two large aft lockers and a secure, ergonomic cockpit. A mooring sun awning provides additional comfort at anchor.
Navigation electronics include a B&G H5000 autopilot, ensuring precision and reliability. Standing rigging, ground tackle (rode serviced three years ago) and forward hatch sealing (redone this year) underline the boat’s excellent technical condition.
Below deck, the yacht offers generous volumes, refined finishes and high modularity, with a practical navigation station, L-shaped galley, bright saloon and comfortable cabins. The plexiglass panels were replaced five years ago.
A rare opportunity to acquire a highly safe, performance-driven and meticulously maintained Fauroux 50, perfectly suited for demanding sailors seeking a unique yacht for offshore cruising or racing.
