Classic sailing and rowing open boat Moondance Yachts
TENDER

This tender is the ideal companion to the modern traditional yacht such as her bigger sister, the Moondance 39. She can be 'nested' (the boat is split in half for storage on deck) to a box of 1.6m by 1.2m by 0.43m. Her overall dimensions are:

LOA: 2.7m
Beam: 1.2m
Displacement (light ship): 46kg
Cp: 0.56
Sail Area: 4.3 msq
Kg/cm Immersion: 13.8
She can be rowed, sailed or motored. Her incredible lightweight makes launching a pleasure and she is easily stowed on deck. Her load carrying capacity is surprising; three large adults plus some provisions is not a challenge to this little boat at all. The ample sail area and lightweight hull also makes her a pure joy to sail. She starts to plane in a 14 knot breeze with the lateen rig on a reach. She is similarly not shy when it comes to beating. Her lanteen rig (also called the dhow rig) shows her roots as an African boat.
