The sixth in a series called Georgia, the boat, which an almost identical sistership to the Emirates Transpac 52, will be faster and more versatile, capable of achieving speeds of up to 25 knots thanks to 350 square metres of sail area, a dynamic hull shape and lightweight engineering.

Owned by Georgia Racing, a company owned and directed by Auckland barrister Jim Farmer QC, it was launched at the Emirates Team New Zealand base on Thursday 8 October.


The Transpac 52 or TP52 as the class is known is an elite, mostly professional one design class raced throughout Europe.

I had been thinking for the last few years that a TP52 was likely to be the next mid-sized boat to have, explains owner Jim Farmer, who is a director of Emirates Team New Zealand, many of whose crew have sailed on Georgia Racing boats.
