Character
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her moderate displacement on a moderate beam gives 21 — a moderate, middle-of-the-road motion.
2.11 — right around the 2.0 line, the edge between coastal and offshore.
235 — moderately heavy for her waterline, a balanced cruising weight.
18.1 — plenty of sail for her weight; lively and quick to respond.
45% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.
A balanced, easily-driven cruiser — comfortable and forgiving for coastal work.
- Draws less than ~76% of boats her size on file
Compared with 300 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
