egg-laying wool-milk sow - Flexible in choice of cruising area - Trailerable (when the tanks are empty and heavy gear is removed) - Sleeps 2 people even on a 7.5-week trip - 1.80m headroom - Bed in the forecabin 2.10m x 1.7m - Maneuvers into shallow harbor corners thanks to the centerboard and retractable rudder - Ideal for Friesland - Sails very well downwind to and including a beam reach - Has considerable leeway when sailing close-hauled, making it pointless to sail close-hauled - Reefs early due to the ballast being positioned high in the shallow keel - Drives away when docking in a crosswind - Is CE B certified - Very good mast lowering system - Robustly built, both GRP and interior - Hull and deck laminated together - No creaking noises in rough seas - Isophthalic resin - Solid hull (partially Coremat), - Deck sandwich with foam core (no laminated wood in structural areas)
