CAPE 31 One Design
"It is the passion for the sea and for yachts that has always driven my life."
After the last few years of designing, developing and enjoying sailing the 100' Tango designed
by the architect Mark Mills, it is a smaller sailboat, the Cape 31, also designed by Mark Mills
that I want to talk about:
fleet in the Med
Welcome to those who love to steer and are passionate about racing.
From an Olympic medal with his brother Yves, through a round-the-world race with Eric
Tabarly, not forgetting his many oceanic victories and his "America's Cup" success with French
Kiss and Ville de Paris, eclectic sailor Marc Pajot today broker, designer and consultant ensures
through Pajot Yacht Selection the representation of the Cape 31 one-design for the
Mediterranean Sea.
The Cape 31 is an affordable high performance 31 foot race boat.
Teams usually sail 7 up on this latest generation race boat. The class rule prefers owner driver (always amateur) and a mixed crew of amateurs and professionals..
The key to this boat’ success already is that it has proven itself as not only a great one design boat, but also as a competitive boat under multiple handicap systems. The boat has had some impressive results over the last few years in a host of UK and European IRC events, Caribbean CSA events and US ORR/ORC Events.
Another great feature of the Cape 31 is that she (along with her 2 piece mast) easily fits into a 40ft container !
Cape 31 Sales - New and used

that I want to talk about:
- One-design day boat, fast and fun!
- It is very versatile, reliable, for a limited budget and even wins in IRC.
