Notes: Sail area above includes main + genoa.\nA novel feature was a galvanised tubular steel skeg which, in addition to the two mild-steel bilge plates, provided a third point of support for taking the ground.\nLater, a modified design was offered, known as the Midshipman Weekender. This had a longer cabin and two full-length berths.\nImage, specs and notes are from "A History of Hurley Marine" by Tim Sharman and Nick Vass, Copyright © Hurley Owners Association 2011 and 2017.
