THE PASCIA GALLERY

This is my edited translation of Domenico (Mimmo) and Beata Calla's information on their Farr740; Pascia’. If I’ve made any errors, they are a reflection on my poor knowledge of Italian and I apologise to Mimmo and Beata.

Mimmo and Beata's club is the Gargnano Sailing Club. This where, all the summer, Mimmo teaches junior sailing using the Optimist. This is far away from his house.

M & B live in a city that is found approximately 150 km from Lake Garda, called Bolzano.

They love a lot their Farr740 and have owned her since 1994.

The characteristics of Pascia are:

  • Fixed keel (designed by an architect from CBZ )
  • Mast of 10 metres, approximately. As you will see from photo, there are no running backstays and she has swept-back spreaders.
  • She is without kitchen and sink and, for the regattas, they have dispensed with anything other than minimum required for her class on Lake Garda.

For the last two years, Mimmo has tried to constitute a class of his beautiful boat. However, all the owners have made so many modifications that they are no longer equal to one another.
