- Best for:
- This vessel is best suited for active coastal cruisers and performance-minded sailors who prioritize sailing dynamics and modern amenities, as evidenced by the high prevalence of bimini, davit, and watermaker installations in the fleet.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low capsize ratio of 3.44 and a displacement of 23810.0 lb, the boat offers reasonable offshore stability, though its lightweight nature and specific hull construction require careful monitoring of structural integrity for extended bluewater passages.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include other modern performance catamarans from the mid-2010s, such as the Lagoon 42 or Fountaine Pajot Elba 45, which share similar fractional rig configurations and target the same market of owners seeking a blend of cruising comfort and racing capability.
