Character
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her heavy displacement on a moderate beam gives 32 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.
1.78 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.
426 — very heavy for her waterline, a serious load-carrying cruiser.
15.8 — moderate power for her weight; steady, all-round performance.
30% of her weight is ballast — on the tender side; she'll heel readily and want a reef sooner.
A capable cruiser that sits just inside the offshore line — coastal work with real passages in her.
