Character
Where this design lands on the numbers a shopper trusts — read straight from her own ratios.
Her moderate displacement on a narrow beam gives 30 — a sea-kindly motion in a seaway.
At 1.60 she sits well under the 2.0 line — a solidly ocean-capable hull for her size.
229 — moderately heavy for her waterline, a balanced cruising weight.
16.3 — moderate power for her weight; steady, all-round performance.
44% of her weight is ballast — stiff, standing up well to her sails.
A capable offshore cruiser with an easy motion when the sea gets up.
- Heavier than ~84% of boats her size on file
- Draws more than ~96% of boats her size on file
Compared with 462 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
