Fargo - hull no. 44 was built late in 2022 and launched in 2023, while she only sailed for six regattas in that year. She is one of the newest and best prepared Cape 31’s currently on the market. In 2024 the boat remained ashore indoors as the owner was based in Barcelona with the British AC team. In 2025 the boat came out from undercover storage on two occasions only and is now packed up and back undercover again. Included in the sale is a suit of Quantum sails which have only been used for two regattas. The boat is ‘as new’ and has been fully race prepared with all ‘permitted extra’s’ fitted (including full foil alignment and potting of the Keel). Based at Hamble Yacht Services, the sale price includes packing up and loading into a container/lifting onto transport. The definition of turnkey, Fargo is ready to race in her stunning Mercedes Silver & Orange livery.
