This attractive pocket cruiser was designed for a client on the island of Mauritius and has some of the hull design features of the indigenous craft with their sweet and not over wide transoms married to traditional English work boat hull shapes with plumb stem and fairly hard bilges giving excellent stability and sea-keeping qualities. Construction is for strip planking over computer faired mould shapes. She has an inboard engine as well as a swing keel which does not intrude into the cabin space. The cockpit is large and the cabin is laid out generously for 2 crew.

LOD (ex bow sprit) 20'3" (6.17m); Beam 8' (2.33m); Draft 2'/5' (0.61/1.55m); Approx. Displ. 3528 lbs (1600 kg); Ballast 992 lbs (450 kg); Sail Area 240 sq.ft (22,36 sq.m.).
