Full description
Show full description
The deck plan is inspired by maxi yachts, with three separate cockpit areas, wide side decks and several sunbathing areas. The winches are matched to the size of the boat and can be specified as electric. The flush, obstacle-free deck with non-slip surfaces remains easy to move around even in rough weather.
Below deck there are three cabins and three bathrooms, plus a crew cabin forward with its own facilities. Several layouts and colour schemes are available, with wood veneer, lacquered panels, stainless steel and eco-leather. The interior has no sharp corners and plenty of handholds for moving about safely when heeled.
The hull and deck are vacuum-infused in sandwich construction with multiaxial glass fibre and vinylester resin, for low weight and high stiffness. The draught is limited without any loss of righting moment, with a shallower keel available as an option. The boat comes prepared as standard for downwind sails of various lengths.
Key dimensions: length overall 16.98 m (hull 16.10 m), waterline 14.00 m, beam 4.85 m, draught 2.60 to 2.90 m, displacement approx. 17 tonnes and 176 m² of upwind sail area (mainsail 98 m², jib 78 m²). A 75 or 110 hp inboard diesel, 600 litres of diesel and 700 litres of water.
