Very competitive, IRC-optimized 32-footer. This pocket rocket is a giant killer. Getaway Ichi has outperformed much larger yachts in IRC racing including: Sydney40, Swan42, Farr36, Bene 47.7 and 40.7, Archambault 35 and 40, Elan 410 and many others. Designed by Jason Ker for all-round performance, the Ker32 is one of those rare, magic IRC designs that keeps winning (like the J35 or BH36). It is in walk-on and win condition.

The Beneteau First 53 F5 is the result of a great collaboration between Bruce Farr’s design genius and the timeless styling of Pininfarina. This model is one of Beneteau’s most successful and they have done incredibly well on both the race course and cruising. This particular yacht is in exceptional condition after having been purchased by her owner in Spain a few years ago and then refitted and continually maintained and upgraded since. On the Asian racing scene she is very well known with 3 Raja Muda wins and 2 King’s Cup wins, and has a string of podium finishes to her name. Her sail wardrobe is BRAND NEW including a Evolution full carbon race mainsail.

It’s easy to realise from the moment you step aboard “Reso” that this a handsome sloop. It is completely put together like an Aston Martin and balanced to stand her watch and hand steer through a gale but then turn out a stunning meal afterward. A powerful Bluewater performer and a supremely comfortable coastal cruiser, the more you look the more you find that every piece is in place to make the 523 appeal to a wide spectrum of sailors and non-sailors. As she is a thrill to sail and a delight to entertain on.
Such is the well balance of the yacht and ease of use she lends herself to club racing with a IRC handicap to come out a winner even if she passes the line soon after the full-on racing yacht. But they won’t cross the line with a G&T in-hand.
