Unlike many semi-planing hulls, she does not drive around with her bow pointed skyward and there is little change in vessel attitude from displacement to planing speeds.

Due to the flare and extension of the chine forward, the boat is very dry in a chop, and her fine entry ensures no pounding.

She is powered by a 150hp six-cylinder Steyr turbo diesel coupled with a 5-blade CNC milled prop which pushes her along at a top speed of just under 20kts, and she comfortably cruises at mid-teens. Exterior finishes are aimed at low maintenance with Awlcraft 2000 being used for the topsides and Awlwood used for all clear finishing. Hull construction is from western red cedar core with E-glass skins set in ATL Kinetix epoxy resins. An emphasis was placed on having an open flow, uncluttered interior to facilitate interaction between the cockpit and the forward cabin area.Īlthough she has an eye to traditional looks such as the plumb stem and curved, raked transom, the design incorporates modern materials to achieve a strong, lightweight and easily driven hull. The design concept was to create a vessel primarily aimed at day use and occasional overnight stays on Sydney Harbour, but with the ability for shorter coastal hops in good weather.
