JFA – the second Long Island 85 is sailing

It has taken the builder four months, since its launch last December, to finish, rig and equip the second Long Island 85.

The tests have started, to carry out the final adjustments necessary for the program, which is a round the world trip via the two poles. To retain performance under sail, the weight has been strictly limited and peaks at 56 t. The two aluminum hulls are covered by a bonded composite deck, the rig is in carbon and the accommodation (which we will be discovering soon) is assembled with lightweight materials.
