Layup weights
On-water profile
Both scores are rated at the hull's own design weight. How these are derived.
Speed here also has a traced hull behind it: measured off this boat's own side and plan photographs, the shape alone rates it 9.3, and the published score moves a third of the way toward that. What that means.
Suits: Ocean racing and downwind for elite paddlers under ~85kg
Paddler weight
This hull is built around a paddler of about 83 kg. It stays workable from 73 kg to 88 kg, and sits at its best between 77 kg and 85 kg.
Derived from published hull dimensions and calibrated against manufacturer paddler limits, not taken from a marketing range. The method, in full.
