Character

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

TrailerableBeam 2.19 m — inside the 2.55 m no-permit tow width across most of Europe, and the 2.59 m US and Canadian limit. About 907 kg of hull, so roughly 1,500 kg on a trailer: check that against your own towing rating.Shoal draftDraws 0.91 m, board up where she has one — creeks, sandbars and thin anchorages most keels have to stay out of.
LivelySea-kindly

Her moderate displacement on a moderate beam gives 13 — a quick, lively motion that feels every wave.

Comfort ratio 13
CoastalBluewater

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

Capsize screening 2.28
LightHeavy

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

Displacement / length 208
EasygoingPowered-up

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

Sail area / displacement 15.8
TenderStiff

44% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.

Ballast 44%

A balanced, easily-driven cruiser — comfortable and forgiving for coastal work.

  • Lighter than ~77% of boats her size on file
  • Draws less than ~75% of boats her size on file
  • Narrower than ~78% of boats her size on file

Compared with 665 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
