Design

The Metaf is a recreational sailboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, with a keel-stepped mast and aluminum spars with stainless steel wire rigging. The hull has a raked stem, a slightly angled transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a retractable centerboard. It displaces 430 lb (195 kg). [1] [2]

The boat has a draft of 3.28 ft (1.00 m) with the centerboard extended and 0.82 ft (0.25 m) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water, beaching or ground transportation on a trailer. [1] [2]

The design has sleeping accommodation for two people, with a double "V"-berth in the cabin. The cabin's headroom is 42.5 in (108 cm). [3]
