It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a step-down reverse transom wiyth a swim platform, a partial skeg-mounted rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 17,968 lb (8,150 kg) and carries 7,385 lb (3,350 kg) of ballast. [1]

The design has sleeping accommodation for six people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin, a semi-circular settee around a round table in the main cabin and twin aft cabins, each equipped with a double berth. The galley is located on the port side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove, an ice box and a double sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the starboard side. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the starboard side. There are also sinks located in each of then aft cabins on the centerline. [1]
