Capsize screening 2.14
LightHeavy

232 — moderately heavy for her waterline, a balanced cruising weight.

Displacement / length 232
EasygoingPowered-up

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

45% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.

Ballast 45%
