This almost completely open boat, except for the targa arch on which the mast stands, provides many seats and the ability to distribute weight between the bow and stern. It is stable despite its low dry weight thanks to the retractable keel and water ballast tank. It sails well even in light winds.
The spacious cockpit has the boom at a safe height. (The helmsman can sit with his back against the pushpit for a good overview and out of reach of the boom.) Cushions in the open forepeak with high freeboard, a popular spot for children (and their parents).
A two-part cover protects the cockpit, with one part functioning as a sprayhood. Self-draining with just the sprayhood by pulling out the hatch over the cockpit floor. The forepeak is covered by a separate cover.
Swim ladder and separate handle, great for swimming and easy to climb up. Storage under the benches in the cockpit and in the freeboards in the forepeak.
All equipment for a ready-to-sail boat:
Trailerable with a B driver's license and motorboat trailer thanks to its low dry weight and retractable keel.

The water ballast is filled by opening a screwable through-hull fitting. The ballast can then be pumped out with a hand pump or let the water drain out when lifting on the trailer/slip. The retractable keel can be pulled up or folded up to enter shallow bays. The rudder is also retractable.
Instruction manual for rigging. Bottom cleaned (required by boat club in Lake Mälaren) and epoxy treated by Båtvårdsspecialisten for over 20,000 SEK (receipt available). Easy to rinse off in the fall and just put back in the water in the spring.
Includes a small Mariner two-stroke engine with a built-in tank. It was stored for 3 years, started on the second try, and runs smoothly.
The boat is now launched but is not fully equipped or rigged due to the sale. It is located in Lake Mälaren at Bromma, Stockholm, for pickup. A slip is available, and it is easy to load onto a boat trailer.
