With bowthruster, an in-mast furling mainsail, and two headsails on roller furling gears, she is set up for very easy handling.

Alan Pape was well known as a designer of long-distance yachts. His most popular designs were the Ebbtides, Sagas and Cuttyhunks, but he also drew many other yachts, mostly in steel.

The exact design of this yacht is unknown, but with her clipper bow she looks much like one of Pape's Cuttyhunk 38 designs, although the underwater body is slightly different, and she has a larger coachroof and different internal layout. She is built of Corten steel, a high tensile steel alloy containing copper, chrome and other metals, which is often used unpainted for shipping containers and outdoor architectural use. When exposed to weather bare Corten steel forms a rust-coloured oxide layer which protects against further corrosion, although it can also be painted.

The underwater hull was stripped back to bare metal and re-epoxied in 2004: this photo is from November 2007, with most of the antifouling removed back to the epoxy.

The saloon has a dinette to port, with a single quarterberth aft. To starboard are the galley and chart table. A passageway forward leads to the forecabin, with a watertight bulkhead door. To starboard of this passageway forward is a hanging locker and another single passage berth, and to port is the heads compartment and an enclosed double cabin

A flued Bengco charcoal heater is on the bulkhead by the passage berth
