What the model is suitable for
suitable with restrictions for blue-water sailing and long-distance cruising
Large, spacious catamaran with CE category A, fixed keels, osmosis-resistant solid laminate below the waterline and a large water tank. Das Gebrauchtboot-Heft Nr. 143 (2015) assesses structure, rig and fittings as unremarkable and the boat as suitable for long-distance cruising and Atlantic crossings. Open questions remain the watertightness and attachment of the bulkheads after two damage incidents, handling by two people from the flybridge, leaking hatches and a thin foredeck layup without a documented ocean passage by an owner.
