Over dit Jacht

Made for cruising and racing

The First range makes no compromises when it comes to onboard safety. The choice of materials and production processes are all based on the latest technologies to combine strength with light weight and ergonomic simplicity. The transom, cockpit, deck, and layout are carefully designed for safe sailing and maximum workspace for the crew, while the equipment and deck hardware emphasize ease of sailing and handling.

Designed with care

The new First range is an eye-catching series of boats. They command attention on the water and at the dock. The talent of their designers is particularly evident in the sleek, clean lines of these fast racer-cruisers.

Made for fun

The First range is all about speed, elegance, and comfort. Styled by some of the biggest names in contemporary design, their interior concept redefines the standard for a relaxed and refined sailing experience. The materials, natural light, living spaces, and furnishings all come together to create a distinctly contemporary feel.

Programmed to Lead the Race Field

The First range remains true to its impressive pedigree. Every design parameter is tailored to the most demanding performance requirements. Designed to achieve the maximum possible waterline length under sail, the hull shape gives these yachts a truly exhilarating speed curve. The First raceboats are fully specified to reach the starting line of prestigious racing events, give their all, and lead the field.

Customers specify their own boat according to their wishes and type of sailing: every FIRST is unique!
