Character

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

LivelySea-kindly

Her moderate displacement on a moderate beam gives 20 — a moderate, middle-of-the-road motion.

Comfort ratio 20
CoastalBluewater

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

Capsize screening 2.21
LightHeavy

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

Displacement / length 203
EasygoingPowered-up

20.6 — plenty of sail for her weight; lively and quick to respond.

Sail area / displacement 20.6
TenderStiff

51% of her weight is ballast — very stiff, carrying full sail in a blow.

Ballast 51%

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

  • Draws more than ~92% of boats her size on file
  • Beamier than ~83% of boats her size on file
