Yacht description
M.A.T. 1340
13.40 m IRC Racer / Cruiser
This 44’ IRC special is the result of an extensive R&D phase aimed at optimising under IRC both inshore and offshore and ended up with a solution significantly faster on corrected time than an aggressive ‘Mini-TP’ model. These features of medium/light displacement, fin keel, moderate sail area, and the option of twin rudders enable reduced crew numbers especially offshore.
Mat Yachts: 'This is the fourth project with Mills design over 14 very productive years working together. Since the cooperation we have become successful worldwide with focus on high performance, cost-effective boat building, ensuring this new design has the best opportunity to succeed both inshore and offshore.'
'So whilst the rules will continue not to favour the lightweight whiz-bang, it is important to remember that with the MAT 1340 you’ll have better behaviour and a kinder motion. It will be nicer to race, you have three full cabins and all the amenity that brings, a huge cockpit (especially without a pedestal), and it will still get up and be on the plane in a solid squirt. i.e. No ocean grading going on here.'
