Class 40 #81 Zed4 Akilaria RC2 Marc Lombard Design, built by MC-Tec
Offshore racing sailboat with a recent and extensive refit! This sleek performance sailboat offers excellent value -- especially for ‘Global Solo Challenge’ and world race events. Built to Cat 1 standards - upgradeable to Cat 0 with minimum investment. Continuous upgrades since 2020.
Unleash Your Offshore Ambitions: 2009 Akilaria RC2 Class 40*
Sail up to the starting line of your next great ocean adventure with a proven shorthand speed machine. Designed by the legendary Marc Lombard and built by MC-Tec, this Akilaria RC2 represents the sweet spot of Class 40 racing—combining rugged reliability with the exhilarating, podium-ready performance needed to tackle the world’s most demanding offshore events. Whether your sights are set on the Global Solo Challenge, the Atlantic Cup, or a swift transatlantic passage, this vessel delivers true ocean-crossing capability without the intimidating price tag of a new build.
The Akilaria RC2 is renowned for its powerful hull form, engineered specifically to excel at high-speed power-reaching. A high-modulus Axxon carbon mast, and an optimized racing sail wardrobe ensure maximum stability and efficiency in all wind angles. When sailing shorthanded, the dual water ballast tanks provide the right righting moment, while the twin-rudder system guarantees total, responsive control even when driving hard through heavy following seas.
Reliability extends far beyond the sail plan on this particular hull. Auxiliary power is anchored by a recently upgraded 2023 Nanni Kubota 29HP diesel engine, showing under 220 hours of runtime. This practically new power plant ensures efficient, worry-free motoring when negotiating tight harbors or charging systems in a calm. Below deck, the electronics package features dual premium independent, offshore-proven autopilot systems equipped with true wind mode, acting as your highly dependable co-pilot when sailing solo. Power management is handled by a multiple deep-cycle AGM battery bank supported by solar charging, ensuring your critical navigation, AIS, and communication systems run day and night flawlessly.
This vessel has been meticulously maintained and includes redundancy in almost every key mechanical and navigational electronic system. It is currently fully Category 1 offshore compliant and is easily converted to Category 0 compliance with the addition of the forward bulkhead hatches. It stands ready as a turn-key platform for an amateur stepping up to ocean racing or a seasoned pro looking for a cost-effective, competitive campaign.
* Class 40 is a class of monohull sailboats that was established in 2004 to create an accessible category for shorthanded offshore racing.
Opportunities to own a well-sorted Lombard Class 40 with such a fresh auxiliary engine do not last long. Call today to arrange a private inspection
