Hull

Built predominantly of hand-laid up fiberglass with unidirectional roving used throughout the laminate. The hull is further strengthened by the use of a grid system of unidirectional roving bonded to the hull. A cast lead keel is secured to the hull by 15 stainless steel bolts. The boat was designed for IOR 3/4 ton competition.[1][7][3]

Deck

The deck is a modified blister type with molded in non-skid on all working areas. The deck is laid up with unidirectional roving together with mat and woven roving over balsa core. Aluminum plates are molded in under all winch and track positions for adding, removing, or altering deck hardware. Stowage areas in cockpit lockers.[3]

Deck hardware

Hull and deck are joined by a silver anodized aluminum perforated toe rail. Head sail control is managed by recessed anodized aluminum tracks with stainless steel cars, baby stay track and slider, and two Number 24 Barlow Genoa sheet winches, clam cleats and stainless steel cleats and fairleads. One Number 20 Barlow winch is used for the jib halyard. Mainsail control uses a Seaboard ball bearing main sheet traveller. There is a welded anodized aluminum bow fitting with two cunningham sheaves, and three removable pins for two separate jib tack positions. The boat has bow and stern pulpits made of stainless steel, with double life lines and gates. Two goiot hatches and a spray shield are designed into the deck.[3]

Spars and rigging

Spar, boom, spinnaker pole and reaching strut are built by Procter and are silver anodized aluminum. The mainsail clew out haul and jiffy reefing are contained internal in the boom. All standing rigging is 6 x 19 stainless steel, as well as all turnbuckles and toggles.[3]

Racing package

A racing package was optional with a Proctor tapered anodized aluminum spar with two wire jib halyards, two spinnaker halyards, one wire main halyard, and a wire pole lift all internal. Also included were airfoil spreaders, a spinnaker pole and reaching strut, three Number 20 Barlow winches, one Number 24 Barlow halyard winch, one Number 14 Barlow auxiliary winch, one Number 4 Barlow main sheet winch. All winches also have cleats. The racing package also added eight additional recessed tracks and cars, two additional sets of genoa sheets, one additional set of spinnaker sheets, four additional snatch blocks, one Omni compass, boomvang, folding propellor The boat is available with wheel steering or tiller.[3]

Engine and tanks

The standard engine is a 30 hp Universal Atomic 4 gas engine with morse controls and instrument panel, with engine room blower and intake vent to USCG and DOT standards. There is a 34 US gal (130 l) collapsible water tank and a 20 US gal (76 l) fuel tank with removable hatch for cleaning. Diesel engines are available as options.
