Por qué los regatistas eligen el Figaro 3
The Figaro 3 is the foiling one-design raced by France's top solo offshore skippers, so results come down to the sailor rather than the boat. The foiling design is clearly faster on a reach than its predecessor. Skippers found it tricky to sail fast upwind, physically demanding, and noisy at speed.
- One-design raced by leading French solo skippers
- Much faster reaching than the Figaro 2, up to about 20 knots
- Lighter and more responsive, quick to accelerate
- Hard to sail fast upwind and out of tacks
- Physically demanding sail handling for solo sailors
- Foils add little in light air; vibration noise above 12 knots

Lo que dicen regatistas y probadores · con nuestras palabras, a partir de las páginas enlazadas
Reaching speeds are well up on the old Figaro, around 20 knots in strong wind, but getting it moving upwind after tacking takes new skills.
Figaro skippers Fabien Delahaye and Tanguy Leglatin, Tip & Shaft · Tip & Shaft, 2019
Hardy felt the foils only really help in very strong wind; Le Pape praised its calm under spinnaker but found it noisy above 12 knots.
