Reichel Pugh 49
In developing this 49 foot cruiser racer, we were primarily focused on characteristics that make for a good cruising boat: comfort below and above deck, ease of handling, and good seakeeping. We combined this focus with hull and appendage design developed from the latest advancements in grand prix design to make for a very exciting package.| Whether racing with a full crew or shorthanded cruising, this yacht will certainly leave you smiling. The yacht has a moderate sailplan that is well balanced with the underwater profile for excellent feel and an easy touch on the helm. The sailplan is easily carried while in cruising or racing mode as the yacht exhibits ample stability from the ballast keel and hull form
