Is it for you?
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her heavy displacement on a moderate beam gives 26 — a moderate, middle-of-the-road motion.
1.93 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.
305 — heavy for her waterline, built to carry stores and ride steadily.
18.6 — plenty of sail for her weight; lively and quick to respond.
40% of her weight is ballast — moderately stiff, a middle-of-the-road stability.
Powered-up and quick to accelerate — this one likes to sail.
