The yacht has a dagger board type keel with a steel core and lead bulb which is bolted in place for sailing but which can be raised using the main halyard for easy trailing. The box for the dagger board runs through the cabin and has a major effect on the usability of the cabin space.
Construction is based on a ply framework consisting of ply bulkheads and a ply fore and aft girder which incorporates the keel box. The planks can then be fitted and finished using the simple stitch and tape method for the chine seams.
