The rhythm of Athens: Unforgettable moments on a sailboat

Welcome to the latest model new breed of high-performance cruiser-racers.

With a weight of 4,8 tons and an upwind sail area of 80 square meters, the new First 36 simply presents a different sailing experience.

Actually, I believe this is the first time a mainstream-production boat with full-cruising facilities, has been pushed this far towards true high-performance sailing.

But what I am really proud of is making this level of fast, fun sailing available to everyone. Because the First 36 has made speed easy, I believe you will simply sail more.

The main difference from most of the other boats labelled as cruiser-racer is this: In a First 36 you are no longer locked in displacement speed. The main reason for this is its significantly lower weight.

Going easily 9, 10 or 11 knots instead of 5, 6 or 7 knots makes sailing more fun. The maximum continuous speed is 20 knots with full crew. It also makes your cruising radius much bigger. You will definetely enjoy sailing more with this boat.

Naval architect: Samuel Manuard

He is currently the hottest name in offshore racing, where his designs are winning Mini, Class 40, and IMOCA 60 classes, Vendee Globe etc.

Structural engineering: Pure Design & Engineering

The team from New Zealand was in charge of engineering at some of the most extreme projects in the world of extreme sailing: TP52s, AC75, AC72, IMOCA 60s, and Club Swan, as well as high-end production yachts.

Design: Lorenzo Argento

First 36 follows the same design language of her larger sister – First Yacht 53 – building on the timeless aesthetic of Lorenzo’s work, most notably seen on the Wally and Brenta yachts.

Innovation and research: Gigodesign

This industrial design studio’s design research and innovation insights with multiple Red Dot awards were essential in locking in and developing innovation opportunities.

More than just 36 feet

A modern hull design brings about an extensive interior volume. This allows for an interior with the size and comfort of a 40 feet from the previous generations. High quality wooden details, in combination with minimalistic GRP, provide a modern, elegant living space below deck.

I have very flexible starting/ending dates, with one way options easily available.

Looking forward seeing you on board my beautiful new First 36!!!
