What the model is suitable for

suitable with restrictions for blue-water sailing and long-distance cruising

Generous liveaboard boat with a high standard of living comfort, CE category A and foam core. Opinions are divided on blue-water suitability: owners with many miles defend the boat, while the only documented ocean passage ends with a verdict against long passages. Weak points for passages are the high boom, the exposed flybridge helm station and the rudder linkage. The 2016 test praises the flybridge and stiff construction, but cites weak performance without a gennaker and an unfavourable anchor roller.
