Character
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her light displacement on a beamy beam gives 14 — a quick, lively motion that feels every wave.
At 2.37 she sits above the 2.0 line — beamy for her weight, and happiest coastal.
175 — light for her waterline, so she is easily driven and quick to accelerate.
17.7 — moderate power for her weight; steady, all-round performance.
47% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.
Light and lively — happiest day-sailing and coastal-hopping in settled weather.
