Designed to sail
The keel’s steel frame is enclosed in a GRP fairing to make it as smooth, regular and as streamlined as possible. The shape of the lead bulb is designed to provide lift: around 2mm on our Faurby 460. It might not sound like much but it helps improve the yacht’s overall performance without compromising her comfort or safety.
