2023 Beneteau Figaro 3The Beneteau Figaro 3 is the first production foiling one-design monohull ever to be designed and manufactured at scale. A distillation of technology and innovation, the Figaro Beneteau 3 is the result of a collaboration between Beneteau and Van Peteghem Lauriot-Prévost (VPLP) Design.

THE HULL – Made of foam sandwich, fiberglass and polyester infused resin, the construction of this yacht corresponds to current designs and is ballast-free.
THE KEEL – Deep keel, with a straight blade, aimed at minimum drag. Supplementary leeway reduction is provided by the foils.
THE FOILS – An inward-facing foil profile. The way they operate is different, designed for leeway reduction and to improve the boat’s righting moment, which boosts overall performance.

This yacht has been principally designed for the Figaro Class and is the world’s leading one-design single and short-handed ocean racing yacht. The Figaro Beneteau 3 is within an accessible and affordable budget for racers and sponsors and the class championship series includes the renowned flagship race, la Solitaire du Figaro. Short-handed sailing is the fastest growing discipline in keelboat racing, and this yacht is the pinnacle platform, and class, in which to hone your skills and compete against the world’s best at the highest level.
