The boat has a draft of 4.00 ft (1.22 m) with the standard keel. [1] [2]

The boat is fitted with a Swedish Volvo diesel engine for docking and manoeuvring. The fuel tank holds 40 U.S. gallons (150 L; 33 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 50 U.S. gallons (190 L; 42 imp gal). [1] [2]
