Product Description
The Liberty S is a totally accessible, single person performance craft that anyone can sail, regardless of ability. Twenty percent longer than the 303 but the same width makes the Liberty a very fast and high pointing small keel boat. The high coamings and wide side decks on the Liberty S keep the boat dry even at extreme angles of heel and the two high aspect rudder blades ensure directional stability. We recommend the “C” Crane and Keel Caddie for handling Liberty centreboards which weigh 70Kg.
