Comet 41S

The Comet 41 Sport is a successful IMS/IRC racercruiser which fits tidily into that spectrum. Launched in Italy, it is well-proven, with a string of racing successes. Comar has been building yachts since 1961 and were one of the first companies to build in glassfiber. They mix modern vacuum bagged sandwich construction with genuine artisan woodworking skills. Hulls are manufactured in Airex sandwich with unidirectional and biaxial fibers and epoxy-vinyl resins. While many of the deck fittings come from premium brand names, when an item does not exist or does not meet their exacting standards then Comar manufacture it in-house. That can be anything from custom carbon wheels, to stainless mooring cleats. The Comets are designed by Studio Vallicelli. The Comet 41 Sport hull shape is pretty modern IMS by convention but with a gentle overhang to the stem and neat stern which will reduce wetted surface for the lighter Med conditions, but still produce ample power downwind when the stern sinks a little. There are two keel options, the standard 2.2m lead keel weighs in at 2,690kgs, but a deeper 2.45m lead keel is available with galleries which can add an additional 200kgs for IRC or be removed for IMS optimisation.
