This light-displacement Philippe Briand design was produced in Racing,
Club and Cruising versions. Launched in 1985, the Cruising model sports an
airy, open-plan interior with light-coloured elm joinery. There are berths
for six, a good galley and a reasonably sized chart table, but very limited
stowage. A relatively large, comfortable cockpit and sugar-scoop bathing
platform both enhance her appeal as a family cruiser. Her rig is much cut
down from the sportier versions, but she is still a reasonable performer.
A good starter boat for a family of four, she is at her best daysailing rather
than offshore cruising. There is a lifting keel option, which reduces her
draught to 3ft 1in (90cm).
