The hull is made of plywood and covered with lots of carbon fibre, while the deck is made of GRP sandwich. It is not only the construction method of the Spanish shipyard Sarch that is unconventional, but also their boat concepts. Following the highly acclaimed debut, the small cruiser Sarch S7 (test in YACHT 19/19), the boat builders in Pego near Alicante have now launched a smaller Sarch S6, which, despite a hull length of just under six metres, offers an extremely wide range of possible uses. The small boat can be used as a racer suitable for regattas, as an uncomplicated daysailer or as a trailerable touring boat with a swing keel and a ready-to-sail weight of just 450 kilograms.

The detailed test report of the particularly versatile Sarch S6 can be found in YACHT, issue no. 6/2020. The magazine is available in the DK shop, or you can download the test directly via the link below.
