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 16 — a quick, lively motion that feels every wave.
2.20 — right around the 2.0 line, the edge between coastal and offshore.
228 — moderately heavy for her waterline, a balanced cruising weight.
21.6 — plenty of sail for her weight; lively and quick to respond.
46% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.
Powered-up and quick to accelerate — this one likes to sail.
