Character
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her moderate displacement on a moderate beam gives 34 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.
1.83 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.
181 — moderately heavy for her waterline, a balanced cruising weight.
18.3 — plenty of sail for her weight; lively and quick to respond.
34% of her weight is ballast — on the tender side; she'll heel readily and want a reef sooner.
Light and lively — happiest day-sailing and coastal-hopping in settled weather.
- Heavier than ~89% of boats her size on file
- Beamier than ~93% of boats her size on file
Compared with 1270 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
