Dunning ORC / IRC 44
EDGE (ex-Rigadoon) is a custom built, Dunning 44 all-carbon flyer.
A proven ORC weapon in only her short career, makes this an incredibly exciting long term prospect.
Taking regatta wins "straight out the box" is testament to this design and build, which has incredibly high specification hardware throughout.
No doubt more comfortable inshore, with her low windage/low weight deck design, but built to ISO standards will also allow her to stretch her legs if plans are shaping up that way.
An incredibly exciting, proven racer that is priced at a really compelling level.Rig Sloop Mast: Southern Spars NZ Ultra-High Modulus Carbon, 2 spreader mast with twin backstays and deflector apposing forestay.

Originally launched as RIGADOON. No expense was spared to build the best possible ORC/IRC 44 ft race yacht, and her upkeep and inventory is impeccable. She was specifically designed for inshore regattas and launched in August 2020 in Newport Rhode Island after being shipped from McConaghy Boats in Sydney. The design has many innovative features such as aerodynamic forward hull / deck intersection and a super efficient, lightweight cockpit layout. The boat has only completed 34 races as Rigadoon and Edge, and in 2021/ 2022 she was victorious in Block Island Race Week and NYYC Rolex Regatta against formidable competition. When not racing, the boat is stored in a heated, indoor facility in Portsmouth, RI so presents as new. Edge would be a perfect option for an exciting ORC campaign and we believe she could also show as much pedigree under IRC. 2023 APH 408.5 Recent optimisation for performance and all standing rigging just serviced.
