Russell Coutts & Andrej Justin Rc44

Russell Coutts & Andrej Justin Rc44 - Priced to sell!

This one-design RC44 class was the concept of Russell Coutts and Andrej Justin the Naval Architect. It was designed so that it could easily be transported around the world in a 40ft container: detachable stern scoop, simple keel to hull attachment and the mast in built in two sections for transport.

RC44 ‘Beecom’ is hull number 5 and was built by Pauger Carbon Ltd to a full carbon construction to be fast downwind and stiff enough for upwind sailing.

\'Beecom\' has only been used for three season as the owner was propelled into larger yacht racing, this would be a great RC44 for anyone who would like to join the one-design class.
