Character
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her heavy displacement on a narrow beam gives 48 — a heavy, notably soft motion offshore.
At 1.47 she sits well under the 2.0 line — a solidly ocean-capable hull for her size.
333 — heavy for her waterline, built to carry stores and ride steadily.
15.9 — moderate power for her weight; steady, all-round performance.
45% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.
Built heavy and sea-kindly — a boat made to cross oceans and forgive a rough night.
- Heavier than ~87% of boats her size on file
Compared with 430 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
