Character

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

TrailerableBeam 2.05 m — inside the 2.55 m no-permit tow width across most of Europe, and the 2.59 m US and Canadian limit. About 59 kg of hull, so roughly 650 kg on a trailer: check that against your own towing rating.
LightHeavy

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

Displacement / length 22
EasygoingPowered-up

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

Sail area / displacement 60.4
  • Lighter than ~94% of boats her size on file
  • Narrower than ~82% of boats her size on file

Compared with 93 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
