About the CONCORDIA 47
Farr design #369 Same hull design as COREL 45.
Designed by Bruce Farr and built by Carroll Marine in the USA, the Concordia 47 is a performance-oriented fractional sloop from 1996. With a displacement of 16755.0 lb and a D/L ratio of 111.11, it offers a blend of speed and comfort, though the exact number of hulls built is not definitively recorded in the source data.
- Best for:
- This boat suits active coastal cruisers and performance-oriented sailors who prioritize sailing dynamics and modern fractional rigging, particularly those willing to manage the maintenance demands of a complex, high-performance hull.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low capsize ratio of 2.13 and a robust displacement of 16755.0 lb, the Concordia 47 is structurally capable of offshore passages, provided the critical structural integrity of the keel sump and rudder assembly is verified.
- Comparables:
- It compares favorably to other late-90s performance cruisers like the Swan 44 or O'Day 42, sharing similar fractional rig configurations and displacement ranges, but distinguishes itself with Bruce Farr's specific hull form and higher sail area-to-displacement ratio of 32.99.
