2018 Custom Lombard 34

This Lombard designed racer cruiser has an amazing performance record and also is comfortable below decks, she's perfect for short handed or fully crewed racing so check her out. Recent upgrades include a full hull wrap and an extensive instrument upgrade to B & G H5000 Hercules, Garmin mast displays, auto pilot, Zeus MFD in cockpit and another one below.

Last year she was ORCi Division 4 winner in the 2019 Rolex Sydney-Hobart and 2nd in the highly competitive IRC Division 6 "Mistral" was the best performing 'small' boat in the entire fleet. It's the latest thinking in IRC racing and is light, stiff and has speed with ease.

The huge benefit of these latest designs is phenomenal balance and stability, which when combined with the speed of this generation of Racer Cruisers make them a bundle of fun while still being highly competitive. The other plus with this stability is that these yachts are much less crew demanding, and even though it has an allowance under IRC of 8 crew it's been raced with 6 as it simply doesn't need that crew weight on the rail. So, it therefore also lends itself to short-handed racing and would be a highly competitive option for the two-handed division in the Sydney-Hobart.

"Mistral" has already had IRC and ORCi class wins, yet has a comfortable two-cabin layout with the creature comforts of hot & cold water, a fridge, lots of storage, an owners cabin and separate head with electric toilet and holding tank. And all with generous 1.92m headroom.

With both highly competitive ORCi and IRC ratings, and all the best of gear including a suit of carbon sails she's a great package.
