The hull is made of fibreglass. Generally, a hull made of fibreglass requires only a minimum of maintenance during the sailing season. And outside the sailing season, just bottom cleaning and perhaps anti-fouling painting once a year - a few hours of work, that's all.
The boat is equipped with 4 berths.
The boat equipped with a masthead rig. The advantage of a masthead rig is its simplicity and the fact that a given sail area - compared with a fractional rig - can be carried lower and thus with less heeling moment.
Fin keel
The Ip 24 is equipped with a fin keel. A boat with a fin keel is more manoeuvrable but has less directional stability than a similar boat with a full keel.
The boat can enter even shallow marinas as the draft is just about 1.06 - 1.16 meter (3.48 - 3.78 ft) dependent on the load. See immersion rate below.
Ip 24 is typically equipped with an inboard Yanmar YC121 diesel engine
This section covers widely used rules of thumb to describe the sailing characteristics. Please note that even though the calculations are correct, the interpretation of the results might not be valid for extreme boats.
What is Capsize Screening Formula (CSF)?
The capsize screening value for Ip 24 is 2.05, indicating that this boat would not be accepted to participate in ocean races.
The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level.
The immersion rate for Ip 24 is about 135 kg/cm, alternatively 756 lbs/inch.
Meaning: if you load 135 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm.
Alternatively, if you load 756 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.

What is L/B (Length Beam Ratio)?
The l/b ratio for Ip 24 is 2.65.
If you need to renew parts of your running rig and is not quite sure of the dimensions, you may find the estimates computed below useful.
