The latter version is now going into “New” mode, starting by gaining longer, more inverted bows to increase waterline length and limit pitching. The rig has also been revised, with the adoption of a carbon mast and 3Di performance sails. The appendages - daggerboards and rudders - have been lengthened. On deck, the crossbeam and steering wheels are in carbon as standard. The redesigned interiors have of course been made lighter - with fabric doors, for example. Last but not least, the builder offers wraps that guarantee a “resolutely sporty visual identity”.
