The Faurby 396 represents a pinnacle of the Danish "performance cruiser" ethos, a vessel designed for the discerning sailor who prioritizes windward efficiency and aesthetic grace over the voluminous, apartment-like interiors of mass-produced Mediterranean yachts. Introduced as an evolution of the earlier Faurby 393, the 396 is a slender, stiff, and deeply elegant yacht that embodies the craftsmanship of the Lunderskov yard. With a beam of only 3.38 meters—exceptionally narrow for a boat of nearly 40 feet—the 396 is built to slice through the choppy conditions of the Baltic and North Seas without the slamming often associated with modern, wide-stern designs. According to Faurby Yachts, the model is part of a lineage that emphasizes a low center of gravity and a high ballast ratio, ensuring that the boat remains upright and powerful even when pressed in a stiff breeze.
