2 Farr: A Remarkable Restoration Story of a Beached Farr Half Tonner

2 Farr: A Remarkable Restoration Story of a Beached Farr Half Tonner

Will Baum |

Rebuilding 2 Farr

Back in 2011 Will Baum, and his father, Geoff, purchased the shell of 2 Farr. It was a long 4 year project to rebuild. Will said his experience building yachts was pretty limited as he had no idea about fibre glassing, grinding, painting, motors, electronics etc. Luckily Geoff had some experience in both boat building and as a qualified cabinet maker.

It was a great father son project which drove Will's passion for sailing even more with the amount of hours spent in the restoration. This was a contributing factor to starting his own marine business and then the retail side in 2021.
