Notes:

One of the Classic range designs.

Redesigned Mk II with wider hulls and decks raised to level of gunwale.

The Veed hull shapes with special shaping along the fine keel give all the lateral resistance needed, so no complex dagger boards or projecting keels.

Narai's have been rigged as junks, polynesian sprits, ketch, cutter or gaff schooners.

Hull beam: 7 ft / 2.13 m

Max sail area: 840 sqft / 78.1 sqm.
