Character

Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.

LivelySea-kindly

Her light displacement on a moderate beam gives 22 — a moderate, middle-of-the-road motion.

Comfort ratio 22
CoastalBluewater

2.02 — right around the 2.0 line, the edge between coastal and offshore.

Capsize screening 2.02
LightHeavy

114 — light for her waterline, so she is easily driven and quick to accelerate.

Displacement / length 114
EasygoingPowered-up

26.1 — a lot of sail for her weight; powered-up and eager, a real performer.

Sail area / displacement 26.1
TenderStiff

40% of her weight is ballast — moderately stiff, a middle-of-the-road stability.

Ballast 40%

Light and lively — happiest day-sailing and coastal-hopping in settled weather.

  • Draws more than ~93% of boats her size on file
  • Beamier than ~77% of boats her size on file

Compared with 2207 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
