Idle duck
9 / 41 - score 53%
The Idle duck is a 34.0ft cutter designed by Maurice Griffiths and built in wood since 1962.
The Idle duck is a heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
