Character

Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.

Shoal draughtDraws 0.86 m, board up where she has one — creeks, sandbars and thin anchorages most keels have to stay out of.
LightHeavy

122 — light for her waterline, so she is easily driven and quick to accelerate.

Displacement / length 122
EasygoingPowered-up

23.0 — a lot of sail for her weight; powered-up and eager, a real performer.

Sail area / displacement 23.0
  • Draws less than ~87% of boats her size on file
  • Narrower than ~95% of boats her size on file

Compared with 199 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
