Designed by Ron Amy and built by Ka Shing in Taiwan beginning in 1982, this substantial cutter represents classic offshore cruising philosophy with its traditional long keel configuration and robust construction. The fiberglass hull carries generous displacement at 34,810 pounds, with nearly 29% of that weight positioned low in the 10,043-pound ballast, contributing to excellent stability and sea-kindly motion in challenging conditions. The long keel design provides exceptional tracking ability and directional stability, making this boat particularly well-suited for extended offshore passages where steady helm behavior reduces crew fatigue. While not built for racing speed, the cutter rig offers versatility in sail handling, allowing crews to maintain optimal sail area across varying wind conditions through multiple headsail options. With a comfort ratio of 47.12, this design prioritizes seaworthiness and crew comfort over speed, reflecting the era's emphasis on substantial construction for serious cruising sailors. The capsize screening value of 1.59 indicates good stability characteristics for offshore work. The generous beam of nearly 13 feet provides ample interior volume while maintaining manageable proportions for a cruising couple or small crew contemplating extended voyages or coastal exploration.
