Character

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

LivelySea-kindly

Her moderate displacement on a moderate beam gives 23 — a moderate, middle-of-the-road motion.

Comfort ratio 23
CoastalBluewater

1.98 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.

Capsize screening 1.98
LightHeavy

193 — moderately heavy for her waterline, a balanced cruising weight.

Displacement / length 193
EasygoingPowered-up

15.2 — moderate power for her weight; steady, all-round performance.

Sail area / displacement 15.2
TenderStiff

26% of her weight is ballast — on the tender side; she'll heel readily and want a reef sooner.

Ballast 26%

A capable cruiser that sits just inside the offshore line — coastal work with real passages in her.

  • Draws more than ~89% of boats her size on file

Compared with 2857 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
