Fareast 19R
The Fareast 19R is a sport keel boat designed for individual sailors, small teams and everyday club use.
Within a compact 5.96-metre platform, it features a complete sport-sailing sail plan with mainsail, jib and gennaker, allowing crews to progress from fundamental boat handling to sail trim and coordinated crew work.
The 19R is not simply a smaller training boat.
It brings the essential elements of sport keelboat sailing into a format that is easier to organise, well suited to frequent use and accessible to a wider range of sailors.

WHY CHOOSE THE FAREAST 19R?
Make Sport Sailing Part of the Everyday
For clubs, sailing schools and private owners, a good sport keel boat needs to do more than perform on the water. It also needs to fit real-world use. Designed around a four-person crew, the 19R makes regular training, introductory sailing sessions and everyday sport sailing easier to organize.
Its compact platform makes the boat easier to organize and operate while retaining the teamwork and boat-handling experience that define
keel boat sailing.
Whether you are taking your first step into sport keel boats or establishing a regular training programme, the 19R offers a natural entry point.
Four Crew. Real Teamwork.
The four-person layout gives every sailor an active role on board. The helm manages course and direction, while the mainsail and jib trimmers work together to control sail shape. Through repeated coordination, the crew develops a better understanding of wind conditions, boat speed and the timing of each manoeuvre. That clear division of roles makes the 19R useful not only as an introductory sailing platform, but also as a training tool for developing the fundamentals of crewed racing.
A Complete Sail Plan for Progressive Learning
The 19R carries: Mainsail: 13.00 m² Jib: 8.45 m² Gennaker: 28.91 m²
The full sail plan covers both upwind and downwind sailing, giving crews the opportunity to practise hoists, tacks, gybes, gennaker handling and sail trim rather than limiting the experience to simple cruising.
Lifting T-Keel for Greater Flexibility
The Fareast 19R features a 1.20 m lifting T-keel, giving owners greater flexibility when planning around local waters and storage conditions. Draft requirements, launching arrangements, transport and storage can all be considered as part of the operating setup, allowing the boat to fit more naturally into different environments.
