Character

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

Ramp-launchableAbout 844 kg of hull, with a keel that raises or a draft shallow enough to float off a trailer — she can go back on the trailer at the ramp, not only into the water.Shoal draftDraws 0.41 m, board up where she has one — creeks, sandbars and thin anchorages most keels have to stay out of.
LivelySea-kindly

Her light displacement on a moderate beam gives 7 — a quick, lively motion that feels every wave.

Comfort ratio 7
CoastalBluewater

At 2.77 she sits above the 2.0 line — beamy for her weight, and happiest coastal.

Capsize screening 2.77
LightHeavy

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

Displacement / length 90
EasygoingPowered-up

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

Sail area / displacement 29.1

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

  • Lighter than ~80% of boats her size on file
  • Beamier than ~76% of boats her size on file

Compared with 592 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
