Hull

The hull is made of hand laid fibreglass while the deck is made of fibreglass. Generally, a hull made of hand laid 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 hull is a double hull which improves the indoor climate. Especially when the water is colder than the air in the cabin, then the double hull insulates against cold water and reduce the condense water in the cabin.


Interior

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 2 cabins, 5 berths, a galley, 49.0 liter fresh water capacity, toilet facility and 49.0 liter waste water capacity.


Engine

The boat may be equipped with a OMC Cobra engine at 130 hp (96 kW). The speed is 30.0 knots..

The transmission is a Z-drive aka sterndrive.

The fuel tank, which is made of stainless steel, has a capacity of 208.0 liters (54 US gallons, 45 imperial gallons).
