The swept 2-spreader carbon rig from Southern Spars finished in flat black Awlgrip is the preferred rig geometry for IRC and in addition offers performance, handling and rating benefits. The Rig is currently set with a 2° aft rake and has a Power Team 10 ton Mast Jack. The boom, like the rig, is in Modulus Carbon Fibre. Carbon when used in spars is treated fairly in IRC for boats above 40’ and in addition when using carbon this is also advantageous in its reduction of the overall VCG of the yacht.
The Mainsheet System is the well tried and tested and highly popular AC German Style with an under deck return to the winches making for a clean and tidy deck. The Spinnaker Pole and Bow Prod are also in carbon fibre. The Standing Rigging is Nitronic Rod with a Kevlar Backstay and 12V Fleet-Hydrol backstay hydraulic cylinder. The Forestay is a Harken Tuff Luff foil.
2 full suits of each sail for Club or Regatta racing
Designed to fly off spinnaker pole:
Masthead Asymmetrics for light VMG and heavy reaching,
Masthead Symmetricals for running medium and heavy.
Heavy air fractional.

1 carbon fixed bowsprit
The winches are by Lewmar with 60R Primaries and 54 AST for the Coachroof and Mainsheet Winches. Main, Jib and Spinnaker systems are all Harken with Spinlock Clutches holding the mast and boom lines when not winch loaded.
The deck design maintains a harmonious balance between a large coachroof for maximum volume below decks and an expansive cockpit for easy passing traffic during race manoeuvres. In cruise mode, the main cockpit area has seats and coamings which provide a comfortable enclosed safe place, in the middle of which is an enclosed liferaft locker for swift and easy deployment.
Unlike may race boats, Mills design team has thought this one through when it came to the positioning of the mainsheet traveller, which being on the aft deck is removed from the helm and wheel pedestals for 100% safety during those big downwind gybes. The twin wheel set up offers the best racing position for the helmsman. The coachroof design optimized the jib sheeting angles and has a jib in-hauler system for perfect light airs trim.
Standard layout forward and alongside the companionway hatch features the two secondary/halyard winches with banks of Spinlock Rope Clutches fitted forward of these.
