This boat is easy to sail solo or with family. The rig is straightforward, and the roller system for the sails adds to the user-friendly setup. The hull was sanded to fiberglass in spring 2025, with new primer and self-polishing antifouling applied.

The interior is warm and cozy, with space for four to sleep comfortably. The galley is simple and functional, with a two-burner stove and pressurized water. There is a large water tank and a holding tank, so several days at anchor are possible.
