Rackham Basic is designed to be easily trailed by an average car and launched without outside help. She is an up-to-date design with efficient hull shape, minimum windage and a very attractive bio-design styling. Her wide beam provides the power to carry a powerful rig while her freeboard gives a safe motion through the waves. Low aspect keels provide trouble-free grounding. Rackham Basic has an efficient high aspect ratio rig with an aluminium rotating mast. With only 3 sails and without the need for exotic materials, she will be extremely competitive under the MULTI 2000 rule. Her rigid cockpit has a moulding for the outboard engine. A tent to increase her comfort is optional. She has 4 good berths, a galley, chemical toilets and adequate sitting headroom for overnight cruises. She is infused by Tregor Composites.
