Construction

Sources

Dimensions/displacement per Multihulls World's technical listing and McConaghy's own site (LOA 18.3m, LWL 18.0m, beam 8.8m, draft 1.5-3.75m, displacement 18.50t). Only a combined upwind sail area figure (210 sqm) was found, no main/jib split. Hull, deck and structural components are vacuum-bagged, epoxy-infused E-glass skins with carbon reinforcement in high-load areas over a Corecell foam core (per a Multihulls World construction review) -- classified as grp_fiberglass/epoxy (E-glass as the primary skin material, similar to how this dataset classifies other carbon-reinforced-but-E-glass-primary hulls). Mast material not confirmed in sources reviewed, left not_specified rather than assume carbon despite McConaghy's high-performance/composite pedigree. Retractable carbon daggerboards (described as a hybrid daggerboard/centerboard system; classified as daggerboard, the closer enum fit for a fully-retracting appendage). Verified 2026-07-12. [Rudder/tankage/electrical update, 2026-07-16]: High-aspect suspended spade rudders, twin wheels, hydraulic steering (construction material not independently confirmed, though the hull itself is carbon/E-glass). Fuel and water both 174gal. No holding-tank or electrical-system data found.
