Whether passage-making in search of new surf horizons or fishing or diving off her roomy deck, Singapore Sling offers unrivalled fast sailing and stable, safe cruising. Study the history of this design and you will not find a craft this size with more Trans-Atlantic experience, both racing and cruising.
Simple in design, but advanced in what she can deliver, Singapore Sling can be sailed to weather in harsh tradewinds or off-the-wind with enough speed and surfing to challenge multi-hulls twice her size.
She was made for cruising these waters and on that note, Singapore Sling is riding on a new Indonesia permit, Start date, mid-December 2022, end date mid-December 2025.
Singapore Sling, a Val 30, was designed to be sailed single-handed and so, whether busting through chop, reducing sail in high winds or mooring/anchoring, with a small amount of familiarization and practice you can confidently handle most any situation.
Engine 15 HP 2 stoke Yamaha Enduro with four tanks, Only used approx four months.
