What the model is suitable for
conditionally suitable for blue-water sailing and long-distance cruising
Two specialist press tests list a long set of negatives: no collision bulkhead, few handholds, poorly resolved davits. Forum non-owners consider the rig small and the boat slow; one owner is very satisfied. There are no substantiated grounds for exclusion, but no long-distance reports either. Therefore conditionally suitable.
