Show full description
The boat is designed as a daysailer for two to four people and, thanks to its narrow beam of 2.49 metres and weight of 1,300 kilograms, can be transported on a trailer.
The boat has a retractable keel. In its lowest position, the draught is 1.40 metres; when raised, this is reduced to 0.60 metres. This means the boat can also be used on shallow lakes and on a beach. The ballast accounts for 27 per cent of the displacement. There are four berths below deck.
There are two options for the propulsion system. The yard supplies either a fold-up motor bracket for an outboard engine of four to six hp, or a permanently fitted E-Pod with a removable battery. In the latter case, the boat is powered entirely by battery power.
The sail plan is a fractional rig with a mainsail of 17 square metres and a headsail of 11 square metres. With high-performance sails, the maximum sail area is 28 square metres. A 35-square-metre furling gennaker is available as an option.
