The rocket cruiser ULDB Moore 24 carries approx. 50 more square feet of sail, with 600 pounds less displacement than the similar length J24. The M24 planes easily without pounding to provide a dry deck due to fine entry and hollow bows, a 15-degree deadrise forward, and a flat run aft. It is an all-out racing machine, excellent for windy areas from Monterey north to and including the San Francisco Bay area. |
