NEW REICHEL PUGH RACING YACHT LAUNCHED IN CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA

Windsong Racing Yachts introduces a new and affordable high performance racing yacht to the yachting industry - the Reichel-Pugh 37. Destined to be on the winner's podium at all the international sailing regattas, the yacht is now available to order.

The Reichel-Pugh 37 is a super fast, carbon fibre, hi-tech racing yacht especially designed for high performance racing, and yet is dead easy to sail. She boasts an IRC rating of 1.176, with a ballast ratio of close to 60%, and although only 37 feet in length, and weighing only 3500 kilograms, this racing yacht holds her own against the best.

Designed by the world-renowned boat designers, Reichel Pugh Yacht Designs and built to the most exacting standards at the Acheson Rossa Boatyard in Cape Town, this high-performance racing yacht is set to take the International yacht racing industry by storm.

The Reichel-Pugh 37 was conceptualised by renowned yachtsman, Geoff Meek. Meek is the skipper for South Africa's America's Cup Challenge Yacht, Shosholoza, currently making waves on the International yachting circuit.
