The hull is made from single skin polyester fibreglass, while the deck is a fibreglass-Divinicell sandwich.

The hull has a raked stem; a raised counter, reverse transom; a skeg-mounted rudder controlled by a tiller with an extension and a fixed fin keel.

[1][2] The boat was factory-fitted with a series of Swedish Volvo Penta diesel engines , located under the companionway steps, for docking and manoeuvring.

The enclosed head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the starboard side.

The review describes the design, "her fin keel and semi-elliptical rudder were advanced for the times, as was her masthead rig with its tiny mainsail and huge, overlapping genoa which needs powerful winches or strapping crew to manage.

The hull is slim, well balanced and easily driven and she has a surprisingly easy motion in a seaway.
