The 2.4 Metre

2.4mR yacht“The 2.4mR is perhaps the best, most fun single handed boat you will ever sail. It can be as tactical, technical, and fast, as you want it to be. In many ways, it is like sailing your own small 12 metre.  Anyone who has sailed a 2.4mR will tell you that they are exciting to sail, very competitive to race, and offer loads of FUN… The class includes former America’s Cup sailors, one-design champions, disabled sailors, cruising class sailors, and people of all ages and genders who love to sail. The best thing about the 2.4 metre is that each sailor competes on an equal level of sailing ability – not agility.  Some have called this boat “the great equalizer” because it really levels the playing field for sailors of all ages and abilities. The 2.4 metre is 13 feet 8 inches long. Designed for competitive sailing, it is easily handled, trailered, launched and stored.”* –2.4mR website
