A cruising speed under sail or power of 7 knots is easily achieved... Strong words perhaps but sister ships have proven all of this with their successful extended cruising DICER s current condition is impressive and she has benefitted from an owner who has cared so much she too is more than ready for either adventuring in warmer waters or simply day sailing from her berth on the Beaulieu River.
