Overview
1978 Fast Passage 39
Happy owners, dozens of transoceanic passages and many complete circumnavigations!
This sought after Blue Water Cruiser is stout, comfortable and is very well built. Designed by William Garden and built at the renowned Philbrooks shipyard in Sidney, B.C. the fast blue water cruisers possess great DNA.
Very few stock production boats are up to the rigors of an around-the-world race. Even fewer have completed such a feat. When sailor, Francis Stokes finished the 27,000 mile inaugural BOC Challenge in 1983 on his Fast Passage 39, he was one of only 10 finishers in a race that saw 16 competitors at the start line aboard everything from high-tech, one design, purpose built rocket ships to converted family cruisers. The Fast Passage 39 fit somewhere in between.
