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 19 — a quick, lively motion that feels every wave.
1.94 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.
285 — heavy for her waterline, built to carry stores and ride steadily.
17.6 — moderate power for her weight; steady, all-round performance.
43% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.
A capable cruiser that sits just inside the offshore line — coastal work with real passages in her.
- Draws less than ~84% of boats her size on file
- Narrower than ~91% of boats her size on file
Compared with 1046 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
