The LIS 6.0 is a compact fractional sloop designed by Dieter Gade and built by Gade Boote Kunststofftechnik GmbH (GER) in 2016. With a displacement of 925.94 lb and a beam of 6.82 ft, this vessel represents a lightweight, performance-oriented day sailor rather than a heavy cruiser.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for coastal day sailing and club racing, appealing to single-handers or couples seeking a manageable, high-performance package with a max draft of 4.1 ft.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 2.8 and a comfort ratio of 5.91, the LIS 6.0 is not designed for bluewater cruising and is strictly limited to protected coastal waters.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include other lightweight fractional sloop day sailers from the same era, such as the Laser 2 or small trimarans, due to the LIS 6.0's low D/L ratio of 66.68 and high SA/D ratio of 32.69.
