The Fastnet is one of sailing’s most iconic and challenging races. This year’s edition attracted the biggest fleet to date as 388 yachts set sail on what would prove a record-breaking event as the battle for line honours went right down to the wire. Also in the Solent, the sport’s fastest fleet racing series made its European debut in equally dramatic style as SailGP broke both records and carbon out on the water. It’s been a busy few weeks in Japan as well as the 470s played out their world championships on the waters of Enoshima before all ten classes battled it out in the Olympic test event just a year out from the start of the Games. And the Olympic news doesn’t stop there, as World Sailing announced more details of an exciting new offshore class for the 2024 Games in Paris. Meanwhile back in Europe the Diam 24s concluded their own Tour De France in the Tour Voile, while the 52 Super Series was taking advantage of great conditions in Cascais, Portugal to put on another masterclass.

► Based at St. Augustine in Florida, Front Runner Boatworks is well known in the United States for its center console Open boats, and though the range which extends from 33 to 47 feet is comprised mostly of monohulls, there are two powercats, the 37 Cat and of course the 43 Cat that we’re looking at here. This model was presented as a world preview at FLIBS in Fort Lauderdale back in November, and then we got to discover it at MIBS in Miami. The 43 Cat has a chined hull and bulbous bows designed to guarantee smooth and comfortable performance at high speed even in big seas. The deck plan has been designed primarily for big game fishing, but the manufacturer offers multiple customization options, such as the HTX version featuring an enclosed helm station, wraparound cockpit seating and sleeping accommodation. One last snippet of information about Front Runner: the shipyard has announced the launch of an imposing 55 Cat as early as this coming summer. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Builder: Front Runner Boatworks Length: 43’ (13.11 m) Beam: 12’4” (3.76 m) Motors: 4 x 300 to 4 x 500 HP Fuel: 1,000 US gal (3,785 l) ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 600 multihulls tests!
