Thinking about buying or insuring a boat in Preveza Greece??

Regal 2860 with the FasTrac hull

I was working down at Broadland Boat Centre today. This is a modern and up to date service centre owned by James Fraser of Norfolk Yacht Agency.

This Regal 2860 stock boat I was Surveying had the high performance ‘FasTrac’ hull.


The principle behind the hull is to reduce the surface tension while the boat moves through the water. The full-beam step forces air beneath the hull to reduce drag and friction while inverted strakes cause the boat to track straight and turn tight. With a reduction in friction, the FasTrac hull is able to achieve higher speeds and better fuel economy than boats of equal size and propulsion.

"The step design improves handling and control by reducing the hull's wetted surface, making it move through the water more smoothly and efficiently."
