ORC Grand Prix Classes
General description
The ORC Grand Prix Rule is a BOX RULE expressly studied and designed for three different size boats: 26, 33 and 42 foot creating three level classes: GP 26, GP 33 and GP 42 that follows the path of the well known and succesfull Ton Level Classes.Targets, strongly maintained during the whole research period, have been to promote the conception and construction of boats fun to sail, seaworthy and with considerable longevity. In the development procedure many contributions have come from more than 50 design offices including the most famous ones in the world. The ORC is grateful to all of them and is glad to present the Level Rule on the market conscious that it will change again the way to race and to sail at the highest level.Briefly the rule is designed to create one offs in the frame of a very tight shape and construction controls. Owners are happy to maintain some design freedom and the Rule opens up the opportunity for them to select their own designers and builders. Good benefits of course have come from the presence and evolution of other Box Rules worldwide.The ORC Grand Prix Class principle characteristics are a light displacement, simple fractional rig with non-overlapping jibs, no runners and a large sail area boats with great performances and relative affordable costs. It is the intention that the rules and specifications for the ORC Grand Prix Classes provide close racing without time allowance in grand prix competition and that the yachts designed to this rule be fast, sound and seaworthy, retaining thereby, with a minimum of modification, good value beyond their competitive life as grand prix racers.
