Character
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her light displacement on a narrow beam gives 16 — a quick, lively motion that feels every wave.
2.06 — right around the 2.0 line, the edge between coastal and offshore.
161 — light for her waterline, so she is easily driven and quick to accelerate.
18.7 — plenty of sail for her weight; lively and quick to respond.
Light and lively — happiest day-sailing and coastal-hopping in settled weather.
- Lighter than ~82% of boats her size on file
- Draws less than ~78% of boats her size on file
- Narrower than ~81% of boats her size on file
Compared with 2507 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
