New Zealand Dealership

We are very close to announcing a dealership agreement with an experienced group in New Zealand. The First FT 10m to hit their shores will arrive in about 2 months. We have had several conversations with European interests in a similar fashion but have yet to find the right fit. If there is an experienced EU group out there that has some interest I would be happy discuss the opportunity.

If the $145 is a sail-away price that's knot too shabby at all for a new 10mt boat.

 

Looking forward to seeing one or more in action out in the Gulf. The Polar suggest they may give a few locals the hurry up.

Should prove interesting to see how it goes. Have a feeling that in one design configuration, they have just a little too much displacement and not quite enough sail area to really work with just gennakers, particularly if the prod doesn't rotate. If the IRC handicaps and polars are to be believed, it should be pushing the T30s around the harbour, me thinks those numbers might be a bit on the optimistic side though and performance may prove to be more in line with something like Fast Company.
