Bruce Farr's First 42s7 is known as a fast boat and why she selected by this owner. His goal was to compete in a Bermuda Race with his Sons and a few close friends.

Perigee has had so many systems upgraded that it's difficult to think of her as being from 1996!

Bruce Farr's First 42s7 is known as a fast boat and why she selected by this owner. His goal was to compete in a Bermuda Race with his Sons and a few close friends. 

In 2016 he had his chance and in preparation for the race, he systematically went through the entire boat and refit ALL of the major systems. 

His effort paid off!

Perigee finished 1st in St. David's Lighthouse Division - Class 4 

Perigee also finished 1st in the 2016 ORR East Coast Championships

Since 2017, she's been mostly a fast family cruiser with an occasional club race.

Refit Prior to the 2016 Bermuda Race

  • Complete Repower - New Yanmar 53 HP- Including - Flex Mounts, Stop Solenoid, Starter, Harness, Control Panel, Water/Fuel Separator, Water Heater Connection, Transmission, and Exhaust. 

Note: When thinking about repowering Perigee - the Owner did not want a Common Rail Engine. Instead, he sought out an older non-common rail model - but he still wanted a new engine. He found one that was brand new - still in the crate through Mack Boring. Manufactured in 2009 - installed in 2015/16 and currently with 1385 Hours.

Perigee has had a tremendous amount of thought, care and love thrown at her over the years and it shows. The owners family is very attached to Perigee but, it's getting larger, they're no longer racing, they need more room and are moving up to a larger Beneteau.
