Character

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

Shoal draughtDraws 1.16 m, board up where she has one — creeks, sandbars and thin anchorages most keels have to stay out of.
LivelySea-kindly

Her heavy displacement on a moderate beam gives 35 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.

Comfort ratio 35
CoastalBluewater

1.75 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.

Capsize screening 1.75
LightHeavy

356 — very heavy for her waterline, a serious load-carrying cruiser.

Displacement / length 356
EasygoingPowered-up

12.8 — modest power for her weight; easygoing rather than lively, and happier with a breeze.

Sail area / displacement 12.8
TenderStiff

42% of her weight is ballast — moderately stiff, a middle-of-the-road stability.

Ballast 42%

Built heavy and sea-kindly — a boat made to cross oceans and forgive a rough night.

  • Draws less than ~92% of boats her size on file

Compared with 428 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
