Building of a New Class40
Vessel: Class 40 racing yacht
Customer: Dragon Ocean Racing
Designer: Owen Clarke Design
Evolution Marine Manufacturing built a new Class 40 racing yacht, designed by Owen Clarke Design for Dragon Ocean Racing. She was launched in 2023
For the build of this vessel, significant technical expertise was required: she needed to adhere 100% to the Class 40 rule, and and she needed to be as light as possible in accordance with the rule, and she is essentially a high performance racing yacht, so she will be pushed to the limits.
She was delivered from South Africa to France for final fit out by Marco Lefevre and his team at V1D2 in March of 2023, and will be raced in Europe next season against the best of the Class40 fleet.
Built according to the standard Class 40 class rules
