Character

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

LivelySea-kindly

Her light displacement on a narrow beam gives 33 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.

Comfort ratio 33
CoastalBluewater

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

Capsize screening 1.72
LightHeavy

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

Displacement / length 121
EasygoingPowered-up

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

Sail area / displacement 17.5
TenderStiff

32% of her weight is ballast — on the tender side; she'll heel readily and want a reef sooner.

Ballast 32%

A capable offshore cruiser with an easy motion when the sea gets up.
