In the late 1980s, the yachting world stood at a crossroads as racing rules transitioned from the restrictive International Offshore Rule (IOR) to the more velocitypredictionbased International Measurement System (IMS). Amid this shift, Argentine naval architect German Frers designed a 38foot performance cruiserracer that aimed to perfectly balance competitive speed with genuine cruising comfort. Launched in 1988 and built by the highperformance specialists at Carroll Marine in Rhode Island, the Frers 38 was an exclusive, semicustom build with only 18 hulls ever completed. It offered discerning sailors Swanlike performance characteristics and pedigree in a lighter, more nimble package constructed by one of America's premier composite yards of the era.
