Control and progress of the boat

The vertical bow, one moderated width, an important ballast and a low center of gravity gives to the Oceanis 331 an intrinsic important speed .

The operations available on the cockpit give a good control of the boat and of sails.

The weak deformation of the hull gives a good balance heeling. The cockpit resumes the usual ergonomics of our boats: being sit as well in the cockpit as on the gangways. Skirt with opening transom and shower of cockpit.

For the good progress of the boat, the draft and the ballast are important.
