Sailpages Buyer's Take

The Easy 11.6 is a 38.06 ft cutter designed by Peter Snell and built starting in 1995. With a displacement of 9700.0 lb and a comfort ratio of 7.68, it offers a balanced blend of performance and stability for its era.

Best for:
This boat suits coastal cruisers and shorthanded sailors who value a manageable beam of 19.69 ft and a shallow max draft of 2.46 ft for access to varied anchorages.
Bluewater capability:
With a capsize ratio of 3.7 and a D/L ratio of 89.64, the Easy 11.6 is suitable for coastal and nearshore cruising but lacks the heavy displacement typically preferred for serious bluewater passagemaking.
Comparables:
Comparable boats include other late-90s 38-foot cutters with similar displacement and comfort ratios, such as the Beneteau First 38 or O'Day 38, which share a focus on easy handling and moderate performance.
