What the model is suitable for
suitable with restrictions for blue-water sailing and long-distance cruising
Large, value-stable cruising boat with CE category A, fixed keels and documented payload of just under 4 t; owners have sailed it across the Atlantic and Pacific. The weaknesses lie in steering, generator, rig and equipment, and the underwater construction is unclear. Usable for the trade-wind route if the steering system and rigging chainplates are checked and the hydraulics made redundant. The 2015 test confirms space and handling, but mentions the high weight, a soft bimini and the reefing arrangement at the mast.
