Vivaldi 7 Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Hi All, Does anyone know much about the Wright 11. From what I can see they look like a pretty good large volume cruiser. How would they compare pricewise against a good Farr 1220? Performance? I’ve seen a couple around (Mystic Lass, Tuxedo Junction) but there doesn’t appear to be too many around.....

chariot 133 Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 I guess it's a comparison between glass V timber. Don't know much about performance differences. Wright boats give you good volume and usually good balance but don't know much about the Wright 11. The one on the market at the moment looks like a very nice boat.

Island Time 775 Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 The Wright is smaller, and a bit slower. That one is in very good order, someone has spent a lot on her. Its at the top end of possible pricing for that. a 1220 in that condition should be worth more, but would be a rare find - as that Wright is. There are lots of much later model boats around for that money.... but modern production. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Frank 23 Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 If it is the Wright Oceans 11 then I think the 1220 would be significantly quicker Quote Link to post Share on other sites
markm 22 Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Don't think she's an Oceans, think same hull as Tuxedo Junction, Quiet Riot et al. A well sailed 1220 would have the Wright 11 in breeze, even or a slight edge to the Wright in the light. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vivaldi 7 Posted September 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Wow - that’s interesting. Wonder what state the engine is in then....... You always found out some good stuff in the forums Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vivaldi 7 Posted September 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 https://www.brinwilsonboats.co.nz/gallery/insurance/ladida/ladida.html Do we know how long ago this was? They are wanting a top end price in todays market and I wonder about the future state of the internal cabinetry, electronics, engine etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kick Ass 25 Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Do we know how long ago this was? They are wanting a top end price in todays market and I wonder about the future state of the internal cabinetry, electronics, engine etc. Considering it was an insurance job they would have rewired the whole boat, electronics should be ok as it sounds like it never sank only halfway up engine. If engine never submerged past the intake there shouldnt be any issues and again being an insurance job it would have been thoroughly checked. They are nice boats and seem to sail well, i wouldnt compare it to a 1220 as you are comparing an 11m to a 12.2m so hardly fair to match them off against eachother.

ScarecrowR31 6 Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Great boats. Two trips back from Fiji on one. Massive volume. Only vice is they can pound a little tight reaching. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
