What the model is suitable for
conditionally suitable for blue-water sailing and long-distance cruising
A carbon performance catamaran (18,30 m according to the proposal list), built in China. Documented are a warranty dispute over the lifting keel system, a hydraulic system for the retractable drive, a weight increase from 12,2 to around 16 t and the insolvency of the manufacturer company in 2015. An open saloon and the size make handling by two people and the weather protection concept the key issues.
