About the Farr 395 Sailboat

Designed by the renowned Farr Yacht Design team, this 39-foot sailboat represents the studio's commitment to creating fast, seaworthy vessels that blur the lines between racing performance and cruising comfort. Bruce Farr's design philosophy has always emphasized clean lines, efficient hull forms, and balanced sailing characteristics, traits that likely carry through to this model. Given Farr's reputation for producing boats that excel in both competitive and recreational sailing environments, the 395 would appeal to sailors seeking spirited performance without sacrificing livability. The design likely features the firm's signature approach to weight distribution and sail handling, making it suitable for coastal cruising, club racing, and potentially longer offshore passages. Farr designs are particularly well-regarded for their ability to maintain speed in varying wind conditions while offering predictable handling characteristics. This makes them popular among sailors who want a boat that responds well to both casual weekend sailing and more serious racing campaigns. The 395 would fit comfortably into the performance cruiser category, offering enough interior space for extended cruising while maintaining the sailing dynamics that Farr designs are known for delivering.
