Don't miss out on FIRST EXPERIENCE on Friday, December 15 and Saturday, December 16 at the CYCA Rushcutters Bay from 10 AM to 4 PM each day. You'll have the opportunity to participate in sea trials of the three models on display.

On display: First 44 - Lenny

On display will be Lenny, the fully optimised First 44 that has recently completed the Transpac West Coast of America to Hawaii then cruised the Pacific to Sydney to participate in the Beneteau Cup before competing in this year's Sydney Hobart.

Flagstaff Marine has pre-ordered a performance cruising version of the all-new FIRST 44. With a main, jib and spinnaker from North Sails, she will be a great performer in club racing both inshore and offshore, but also offer a high level of comfort and options to enjoy cruising.

You can see full details of stock boat, which is available to purchase and could see you sailing the beautiful waters of Sydney Harbour, Pittwater, and beyond this summer through the link below.

On display: First 27 - Blizzard

And the third boat on display to round out our FIRST Experience will be the FIRST 27 Blizzard, which has already been competing in local club racing on Pittwater and was more recently down on the Sydney Harbour for the Beneteau Cup.
