The centreboards provide a draught of between 1.25 and 2.25 metres, and the air draft is 21.50 metres. The stated load capacity is four tonnes, which is unusually high for a catamaran of this size.
The sail plan comprises a mainsail of 86 square metres, a solent jib of 35 square metres and a genoa of 54 square metres, supplemented by a gennaker of 150 and a spinnaker of 180 square metres. Two inboard engines each deliver 38 hp.
The weight ranges from 10.5 tonnes unladen to 14.5 tonnes laden. The CE type-approval specifies eight and sixteen passengers respectively, without category letters.
The multiple sail positions in the headsail rig make it possible to fine-tune the sail plan in changing conditions without having to change sails on the foredeck.
