Character

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

TrailerableBeam 2.07 m — inside the 2.55 m no-permit tow width across most of Europe, and the 2.59 m US and Canadian limit. About 525 kg of hull, so roughly 1,150 kg on a trailer: check that against your own towing rating.Shoal draftDraws 0.95 m, board up where she has one — creeks, sandbars and thin anchorages most keels have to stay out of.
CoastalBluewater

At 2.59 she sits above the 2.0 line — beamy for her weight, and happiest coastal.

Capsize screening 2.59
EasygoingPowered-up

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

Sail area / displacement 44.5
TenderStiff

30% of her weight is ballast — on the tender side; she'll heel readily and want a reef sooner.

Ballast 30%

Powered-up and quick to accelerate — this one likes to sail.

  • Lighter than ~97% of boats her size on file
  • Draws less than ~76% of boats her size on file
  • Narrower than ~92% of boats her size on file

Compared with 838 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
