HocusPocus was set up with shorthanded sailing in mind. To ensure this we needed to make the boat and its systems as reliable as possible, therefore the boat has the following differences to other Farr 38's to ensure this:
- Hank on Foresails.
- Batt car system.
- Smaller genoas.
- Double spreader rig (some of the newer rigs have this as standard)
- Overspec stay dimensions.
- Tac Tic instruments (wireless)
- Minimal electrics.
- Higher amperage alternator.
- Not Kevlar sails. (Making hand stitching repairs easier)
There are lots of smaller items as well. The philosophy is to keep the boat simple.
