What distinguishes the model

  • The profiled daggerboard construction gives the catamaran excellent windward performance and makes it swift even in little wind.
  • Vacuum lamination provides a stable, light hull structure that inspires confidence on long-distance cruising.
  • An owner crossed the Atlantic with his family and highlights the yard's committed customer service positively.
