It has a fractional sloop rig. The two hulls each have raked stems, a plumb transoms and transom-hung rudders controlled by a tiller. The hulls have no keel or daggerboards, instead they are curved to provide a keel-effect and to reduce leeway when sailing to windward.[1] The boat has a draft of 0.67 ft (0.20 m) allowing operation in shallow water, beaching or ground transportation on a trailer.[1][3] A trapeze may be fitted.[1][3] See alsoSimilar sailboats References
