The yacht, designed by the successful designer Bruce Farr, was an immediate sales success. The combination of usable cruising and high performance
The shipyard has managed a difficult balancing act: the synthesis of extreme sportiness and still acceptable cruising ability appears to have been successful

A successful performance racer at a competitive price. The racing value of this boat, which is consistently designed according to the IMS formula, is very close to that of the Dehler 36 and the X-362. The racing rig (3 spreaders, rod) is recommended for dedicated regatta sailors. The range of stability and deck layout are suitable even for a small crew. The furnishing concept is also suitable for sailing. 160 units have already been sold since 2001.
