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 27 — a moderate, middle-of-the-road motion.
1.99 — just under the 2.0 offshore line; her beam is modest for her weight.
235 — moderately heavy for her waterline, a balanced cruising weight.
15.9 — moderate power for her weight; steady, all-round performance.
37% of her weight is ballast — moderately stiff, a middle-of-the-road stability.
A capable cruiser that sits just inside the offshore line — coastal work with real passages in her.
- Draws more than ~75% of boats her size on file
- Beamier than ~82% of boats her size on file
Compared with 2461 boats of the same type within a quarter of her length.
