		BRUCE K. FARR, Vice President, O.B.E. Bruce Farr is the Vice President, Director and founder of Farr Yacht Design, Ltd., the world's foremost designer of racing and cruising sailboats.

		Farr had applied some of the same ideas that propelled the dinghies he sailed as a youth to the bigger boats he drew as an adult, Burnham said.
		Farr, though, bristles at this widely held assessment, calling it a gross oversimplification spread by the yachting press, which he generally holds in low regard and occasionally assails in stinging letters and phone calls.

		The combination of the legendary Bruce Farr's design talent and the vision of Kim McDell of Sea Nymph Boats resulted in a boat that was distinctively different from the mainstream trailer sailers of the time.
		The Farr 6000 was an instant sucess in New Zealand and Australia and this led to the expansion of the range with the larger Farr 7500, the smaller Farr 5000 and the dedicated speed machine, the Farr 740 sport.
		Farr 5000s are actively raced in a number of fleets around New Zealand and Australia.

		An excellent example of this is the Farr 3.7 single-handler, and on a visit to the Pakuranga Sailing Club on the Tamaki River, I took the oppurtunity of taking a closer look at the state of the class with national champion Trent Cornwall.
		Designed by Bruce Farr in 1970 as a single-handled trapeze yacht that could then fit into the Q-Class 12ft restrictions, it quickly established itself as a class in its own right.
		The availability of a class association-owned mould is crucial to the continued development of the Farr 3.7 class as it enables newcomers to the class to obtain a fully competitive boat at a very reasonable cost.

	Farr 36 - Sailing Anarchy Forums
		Farr International had planned to install the proper rudder in KW before Fast Track launched the boat, without Markus' knowledge, and it wasn't until Markus was contacted because the rudder was held up in customs that he found out.
		To further cloud the issue, the tiller that was originally installed on the boat was a prototype that was sent to Carroll Marine as a sample, and was clearly accompanied with the instructions to not install it.
		As the end of the week neared, Markus telephoned Bruce Farr to express these sentiments, and it sounded like Bruce was similarly shocked by these goings on, and very much interested in not involving lawyers in future conversations.

		The 727 was developed from Bruce Farr's original quarter ton design, Fantzipantz, which Farr sailed to victory in the 1973 New Zealand Quarter Ton Championships.
		Farr was asked by his friend, Murray Crockett of Alpha Marine Ltd to design a production version of Fantzipantz, and the result was the Farr 727, only one foot longer and with the rudder hung just under the stern instead of the original transom-hung blade.

	NZ boat an 'atrocity', says Farr - smh.com.au
		Auckland: American-based yacht designer Bruce Farr has mounted a fresh attack on Team New Zealand's double "hula" hull after the America's Cup challengers and defenders revealed their boats.
		Farr, who designed the yachts for the Oracle syndicate that was beaten by Alinghi in the challengers final, previously said that Team NZ's "hula" - a hull appendage that reduces drag - was so called because it was an attempt "to dance around the rules".
		Farr said Alinghi's more conventional design was OK.

		Lots of would-be buyers of the Farr 40 were put off by its spartan interior: it's a racing boat, pure and simple.
		As with the 40.7, the hull is solid fiberglass with a structural hull liner; the deck is a fiberglass and balsa sandwich.
