The Archambault Coco is a French sailboat that was designed by Harlé - Mortain as a Classe Mini racer for racing in the Mini Transat 6.50. It was first built in 1985.^[1]^[2]^[3]

Production

The design was built by Archambault Boats of Dangé-Saint-Romain, France, with 110 boats completed between 1985 and 2002, but it is now out of production. Archambault, which had been founded in 1967, went out of business in 2015.^[1]^[3]^[4]

Design

The Coco is a racing keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass. It has a fractional sloop rig. The hull has a plumb stem, a reverse transom, a skeg-mounted rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 2,535 lb (1,150 kg) and carries 992 lb (450 kg) of ballast.^[1]^[3]

For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a symmetrical spinnaker of 431 sq ft (40.0 m²) or an asymmetrical spinnaker of 646 sq ft (60.0 m²). It has a hull speed of 6.04 kn (11.19 km/h).^[3]

Operational history

The boat is supported by an active club, the Class Mini 650, that organizes racing events for Classe Mini boats with a length overall of 21.33 ft (6.50 m). The major race run for this class of sailboats is the Mini Transat 6.50, a solo transatlantic yacht race, that typically starts in France and ends in Le Marin, Martinique in the Caribbean.^[5]
