Kurun Sailing Yacht Hire
About Kurun
Kurun is a standout example of the JPK 1010, a model celebrated for its ability to excel in both competitive regattas and relaxed cruising. Built in 2012 by JPK Composites, she benefits from a robust, durable construction suited to offshore sailing and a carefully optimised hull that ensures excellent stability and course-holding ability.
Her balanced sail plan and responsive rig make her easy to handle whether sailed short-handed or with a full crew. The yacht’s performance credentials are clear: she maintains high speeds efficiently while offering a surprisingly comfortable motion at sea, thanks to her well-designed keel and ballast.
Inside, Kurun features two private cabins plus two additional berths in the saloon, providing flexible accommodation for up to six guests. The interior is practical and well-equipped with a two-burner stove, refrigerator, fresh-water shower on deck, and a Fusion audio system with Bose speakers for onboard entertainment.
On deck, the yacht is fitted with a carbon mast, extended bowsprit, and a comprehensive sail wardrobe including a 33 m² mainsail, multiple jibs, and a Code 0. Additional options such as asymmetric spinnakers further enhance her versatility for both racing and cruising.
Advanced NKE electronics with Wi-Fi connectivity, lithium service batteries, and optional Starlink or hydrogenerator systems keep Kurun at the cutting edge of modern sailing technology while maintaining the simple, efficient layout that makes her such a pleasure to sail.
