Details
'Sparrow' is a striking Fareast 28R, a stylish sports yacht that combines cutting-edge performance with contemporary design. With her razor-sharp, aft-sloping bow, wide low-profile hull, and minimal cabin structure, she turns heads both on and off the water.
Designed by the renowned Dutch Naval Architects Simonis-Voogd, the Fareast 28R is purpose-built for exhilarating sailing with just a crew of four.
Performance & Equipment:
Sparrow is arguably the best-specified 28R in the country, making her a standout in both one-design racing and club competition, where she regularly outperforms larger rivals.
- Evolution sails package, including a brand-new set of working sails
- Raymarine instrument suite for accurate performance tracking
- Extended carbon bowsprit for extra downwind speed
- Brand-new deep carbon rudder (July 2025), delivering exceptional grip and control in fresh conditions
Build Quality:
Constructed by Fareast Yachts - the world's largest ISAF-approved builder of Optimist and 420 dinghies, Sparrow is built to internationally recognised CE standards:
- High-density foam sandwich with vacuum-infused fibreglass skins
- Precision pre-weighed resin application
- Reinforced hull with internal ring frames
- Carbon keel fin and rudder for strength and lightness
Deck & Cockpit:
Her huge cockpit is designed for efficiency and comfort, easily accommodating four to five crew. The helmsman benefits from:
- Neatly arranged rope controls within easy reach
- Adjustable backstay
- Fine-tune mainsheet control
- Traveller for precision sail trim
At a Glance:
- Stylish, modern sports yacht from a world-class yard
- Impressive racing pedigree with premium sail and equipment upgrades
