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 30 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.
1.75 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.
293 — heavy for her waterline, built to carry stores and ride steadily.
15.4 — moderate power for her weight; steady, all-round performance.
45% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.
Built heavy and sea-kindly — a boat made to cross oceans and forgive a rough night.
- Draws more than ~87% of boats her size on file
Compared with 395 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
