RS Feva 627 For Sale, Priced at £3000 ono
For Sale; RS Feva XL 627
Opportunity to buy an ex squad boat with a good racing record. One owner from new, not your average cadet beach toy. Has been an out-and-out racer from new and maintained accordingly.
Fast and fully race prepared; tapered sheets, Ronstan mainsheet ratchet block, auto ratchet spinnaker blocks and kicker, Harken and Ronstan throughout the rest of the boat with various aspects revised and improved over standard.
Very good foils, modern snug-fitting centerboard case fitted, wing nut on rudder stock modified for exceptionally easy tightening, carbon tiller extension. Minor chip to rear of rudder blade (pictured) easily fixed in an afternoon.
Weighed to settle an argument between friends a few years back; boat was around 20kgs lighter than number 2000 all up and they’ve only been built heavier since. Despite the age and low weight, the hull remains solid and is in very good condition with only a very minor dent to the hull, courtesy of an Irish kid who didn’t understand start lines. (pictured, way above waterline so no effect on performance) More watertight than most boats RS have made, too!
Sails;
3x spinnakers.
1 original, Yellow, well stretched with a few patches but sets well. Perfect for light winds.
1 good, Yellow, good all-rounder.
1 very good, Fluro Pink. Race ready.
3x jibs.
1 mylar original, heavy weather training sail.
1 dacron, good condition.
1 dacron very good. Race ready.
2x XL mainsails.
1 good original mylar with a small repair where the sail had rubbed the shroud over the years.
1 very good new mylar used a handful of times, still features sponsorship logos but could easily be removed.
The racing suit of sails has seen very light use since being bought new for the Europeans in 2007. All sails kept clean and dry indoors, and all have their correct bags.
Covers;
New RS/ Hyde top cover (2012)
Undercover (only towed with a handful of times.)
Padded foil bags.
Mast bag. Fits mast, boom and rigging.
Trailers;
Gunwhale hung, stacking-type trolley.
Road trailer.
Removable mast support (was made for my Moth, but fits the Feva’s too)
All in all a very solid, high spec, fast, light boat with a large selection of sails and all possible racing modifications carried out. Would suit anyone looking for the best start possible in the class, or a move to a more competitive boat. Ready to race.
