The interior is like most other boats made of teak. Teak has the advantage of being naturally very oily and therefore water-repellent, which is suitable on boats.
The boat is equipped with 7 berths, a galley, 120.0 liter fresh water capacity and toilet facility.
The Sunrise is equipped with a fractional rig. A fractional rig has smaller headsails which make tacking easier, which is an advantage for cruisers and racers, of course. The downside is that having the wind from behind often requires a gennaker or a spinnaker for optimal speed.
The boat may be equipped with an inboard Volvo Penta engine at 25 hp (18 kW).
The fuel tank has a capacity of 80.0 liters (21 US gallons, 17 imperial gallons).
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 Sunrise is 2.26, 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 Sunrise is about 237 kg/cm, alternatively 1332 lbs/inch.
Meaning: if you load 237 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm.
Alternatively, if you load 1332 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.

What is L/B (Length Beam Ratio)?
The l/b ratio for Sunrise is 2.83.
SA/D (Sail Area Displacement ratio)
Indicates how fast the boat is in light wind:
- Cruising Boats have ratios 10-15
- Cruiser-Racers have ratios 16-20
- Racers have ratios above 20
- High-Performance Racers have ratios above 24
Sail-area/displacement ratio (SA/D ratio): 16.28
