The Fun 23 is a French trailerable sailboat, that was designed by Joubert-Nivelt for one design racing and first built in 1982. The design is out of production.[1][2][3][4]

Production

The boat was built by Jeanneau in France, Ranger Yachts in the United States and Cantiere Nautico Lillia in Italy. Jeanneau built a small number of the design, while Ranger completed about 100 examples.[1][5][6][7]

Design

The Fun 23 was conceived by French sailor Alain Forgeot and became an active one-design class in Europe. The design shares a sailplan with the Soling design.[1]

The Fun 23 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder and a swing-up fin keel. It displaces Шаблон:Convert and carries Шаблон:Convert of iron ballast.[1][2]

The design has a draft of Шаблон:Convert with the keel down and Шаблон:Convert with the keel up.[1]

The boat is normally fitted with a small Шаблон:Convert outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[1][4]

The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and two straight settee berths in the main cabin. Cabin headroom is Шаблон:Convert.[4]

The boat has a PHRF racing average handicap of 180 with a high of 192 and low of 174. It has a hull speed of Шаблон:Convert.[2]

Operational history

In a 2010 review Steve Henkel wrote, "Ranger Yachts built about 100 Fun 23's ... The French team of Joubert & Nivelt designed her ... Jeanneau in France also built a few, and an Itallian firm, Lillia, also has been a builder. Although the Fun is said to have the same sailplan as a Soling (a 27-foot one-design racing sailboat), actually the mainsails have same dimensions but the foretriangle on the Fun is much smaller than the Soling’s. There are two rigs, a short rig and a 'regular' rig ... the regular rig has a taller but still less-than-masthead jib ... she is strictly a bare-bones overnighter when it comes to accommodations."[4]
