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 39 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.
At 1.69 she sits well under the 2.0 line — a solidly ocean-capable hull for her size.
224 — moderately heavy for her waterline, a balanced cruising weight.
19.1 — plenty of sail for her weight; lively and quick to respond.
30% of her weight is ballast — on the tender side; she'll heel readily and want a reef sooner.
A capable offshore cruiser with an easy motion when the sea gets up.
- Heavier than ~94% of boats her size on file
- Beamier than ~80% of boats her size on file
Compared with 2563 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
