The Farr 1020 stands as one of the most successful cruiser-racers ever produced in the Southern Hemisphere, representing a pinnacle of the collaboration between legendary designer Bruce Farr and the prolific New Zealand builder Sea Nymph Boats. Introduced in the early 1980s as Farr Design #119, the model was conceived to bridge the gap between a competitive IOR-influenced racer and a comfortable family cruiser. While Sea Nymph was predominantly known for its robust powerboats, the Farr 1020 showcased the builder's ability to execute sophisticated fiberglass work on a larger scale. Over 200 units were produced, creating a legacy that remains vibrant in the New Zealand racing scene today, particularly within the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron’s fleet.
