The hull is rotomoulded from Comptec PE3 polyethylene and weighs 64 kilograms. The maximum crew weight is 160 kilograms. The centreboard and rudder blade are made of aluminium, the rudder housing features a lift-and-lock system, and the cockpit has padded foot straps.
There is no propulsion engine; the boat is powered solely by sail. The mainsail measures 6 square metres and is set on a two-piece carbon-fibre mast with a boom made of the same material, which keeps the rigging light and the weight high up in the boat low.
The yard states that the crew consists of one person.
