About the FOCUS 800
Inside ballast: 300 kg Daggerboard:300kg Mainsail area:22 m² Genoa area:12 m²
The Focus 800 is a compact fractional sloop designed by Jerzy Piesniewski and built by Sobusiak Yacht Yard (PL) starting in 2010. With a displacement of 4079.0 lb and a beam of 9.19 ft, this vessel represents a niche entry in the sub-30ft market, though the total number of hulls built remains unconfirmed.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for coastal cruising and weekend sailing, particularly for couples or small families seeking a manageable, lightweight package that is easy to trailer and dock.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low comfort ratio of 13.2 and a displacement of 4079.0 lb, the Focus 800 is designed for coastal comfort rather than heavy offshore passage-making.
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels include the Beneteau First 26 and the J/26, as they share similar fractional sloop rigs and target the same market of performance-oriented coastal cruisers.
