Design
Designed by André Bénéteau the glassfibre hull has a slightly raked stem, an angled transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed long keel. It displaces 772 lb (350 kg) and carries 231 lb (105 kg) of ballast.[1][2]
The boat has a draft of 1.80 ft (0.55 m) with the standard keel and is normally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering. It has sleeping accommodation for two people, with two berths in the cabin.[1][2][5] It has a fractional sloop rig, with aluminium spars with stainless steel wire standing rigging.
