The Frers 39 is a distinguished performance cruiserracer that embodies the design philosophy of German Frers during the late 1980s—a period when the designer was transitioning from the pinchedstern aesthetics of the IOR era toward more balanced, powerful hull forms. Primarily built by Carroll Marine in the United States, and also produced by various yards in Argentina and Europe, the Frers 39 was conceived for the sailor who refuses to sacrifice upwind speed for cruising comfort. It occupies a competitive niche, often compared to the Baltic or Nautor Swan yachts of the same era, offering a highend build quality and a sophisticated deck layout that caters to both a racing crew and a shorthanded cruising couple.
