RG65 – Fonix
Designed by John Taylor
LOA 650mm Beam 95mm Displacement 1.1kgs
The FONIX launched in 2016 represented our entry into the developing 65 class. It’s narrow and sleek hull lines follow the same theme of our current Marblehead and IOM class yachts.
In 2018, FONIX completed an extensive upgrade program. The winch and radio equipment have been re-positioned within the mid to after sections of the hull. New style lead ballasts at different weights (Optional) have been included, so skippers have the choice to alter the overall displacement of their FONIX, to suit the weather conditions.
Rig Specifications
FONIX is fitted with 2 mast positions. Therefore, the skipper has a choice of using a combination of Swing and Conventional Rigs. It is recommended for skippers to choose their own supplier, especially if they wish to keep within a budget. There are various specialists who supply carbon tube and components for the rigs required for the FONIX. If you’re choosing to build your own rigs using a kit, ensure you follow the instructions carefully from your chosen rig supplier.
