This model, designed to combine comfort and performance, is ideal for coastal cruising or day trips. With its generous dimensions (length of 8.20 m, beam of 3.04 m, and draft of 1.30 m), it offers optimized space both inside and out.
Engine and technical equipment

Sails and outdoor comfort
The sail plan includes a mainsail on a mast furler and a genoa on a furler, the latter having been replaced 5 years ago. For comfort while sailing, the boat is fitted with a dodger and a new bimini, with the option to fully enclose the aft deck for winter storage.
One of the major assets of this model is its completely flat aft deck, with no protruding engine compartment, allowing 6 people to dine comfortably. A swim platform with a ladder and outdoor seating cushions complete this convivial space. The electric steering system, controllable from the helm station or the forward locker, makes maneuvering easier.
