Character
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her moderate displacement on a narrow beam gives 33 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.
At 1.54 she sits well under the 2.0 line — a solidly ocean-capable hull for her size.
189 — moderately heavy for her waterline, a balanced cruising weight.
20.8 — plenty of sail for her weight; lively and quick to respond.
55% of her weight is ballast — very stiff, carrying full sail in a blow.
A capable offshore cruiser with an easy motion when the sea gets up.
- Draws more than ~89% of boats her size on file
- Narrower than ~97% of boats her size on file
Compared with 2713 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
