Character

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

LivelySea-kindly

Her light displacement on a narrow beam gives 26 — a moderate, middle-of-the-road motion.

Comfort ratio 26
CoastalBluewater

1.98 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.

Capsize screening 1.98
LightHeavy

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

Displacement / length 127
EasygoingPowered-up

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

Sail area / displacement 21.3
TenderStiff

27% of her weight is ballast — on the tender side; she'll heel readily and want a reef sooner.

Ballast 27%

Light and lively — happiest day-sailing and coastal-hopping in settled weather.

  • Draws more than ~80% of boats her size on file
  • Beamier than ~90% of boats her size on file

Compared with 1033 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
