Character
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her light displacement on a narrow beam gives 36 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.
1.77 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.
138 — light for her waterline, so she is easily driven and quick to accelerate.
19.6 — plenty of sail for her weight; lively and quick to respond.
30% of her weight is ballast — on the tender side; she'll heel readily and want a reef sooner.
Light and lively — happiest day-sailing and coastal-hopping in settled weather.
- Heavier than ~87% of boats her size on file
- Draws more than ~83% of boats her size on file
- Beamier than ~94% of boats her size on file
Compared with 344 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
