Character

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

LivelySea-kindly

Her light displacement on a narrow beam gives 32 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.

Comfort ratio 32

CoastalBluewater

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

Capsize screening 1.81

LightHeavy

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

Displacement / length 136

EasygoingPowered-up

21.2 — plenty of sail for her weight; lively and quick to respond.

Sail area / displacement 21.2

TenderStiff

33% of her weight is ballast — on the tender side; she'll heel readily and want a reef sooner.

Ballast 33%

Light and lively — happiest day-sailing and coastal-hopping in settled weather.

Heavier than ~80% of boats her size on file
Beamier than ~84% of boats her size on file

Compared with 742 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
