Character

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

LivelySea-kindly

Her light displacement on a moderate beam gives 22 — a moderate, middle-of-the-road motion.

Comfort ratio 22
CoastalBluewater

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

Capsize screening 2.06
LightHeavy

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

Displacement / length 142
EasygoingPowered-up

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

Sail area / displacement 24.6
TenderStiff

48% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.

Ballast 48%

Light and lively — happiest day-sailing and coastal-hopping in settled weather.

  • Draws more than ~98% of boats her size on file
  • Beamier than ~76% of boats her size on file

Compared with 2581 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
