About the FURIA 44
Draft for Winged Keel vers.: 5.25'
Designed by Joubert/Nivelt and built by Dresport (ESP) between 1987 and 1993, the Furia 44 is a substantial cruising sloop with a displacement of 19797.0 lb. While the exact number of hulls built is unknown, the vessel is characterized by its heavy displacement and fin keel configuration.
- Best for:
- This boat suits coastal and offshore cruisers who prioritize stability and comfort over high-speed performance, given its high comfort ratio of 24.64 and moderate sail area-to-displacement ratio of 18.87.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low capsize ratio of 2.04 and a displacement of 19797.0 lb, the Furia 44 is well-suited for bluewater cruising, offering excellent stability and motion comfort in heavy seas.
- Comparables:
- Comparable to other late-80s European heavy displacement cruisers like the Hallberg-Rassy 42 or Beneteau 443, as they share similar build eras, designers focused on seakeeping, and substantial ballast ratios.
