An ergonomic deck layout with a wide open cockpit and an easily handled sailplan eliminates the need for an army of crew and guarantees to put a smile on all those who sail her. A functional interior to meet the needs of overnighting and distance racing eliminates parasitic weight, minimizes maintenance and guarantees maximum time on the water. The 101 is fast, fun, and functional.

The 101 hull is designed to maximize overall performance without trending to any extreme, creating a boat that offers exhilarating performance on all points of sail. Her nearly 11 foot beam offers excellent form stability and in conjunction with the 6’6” bulbed lead keel provides the stiffness to support a sail area to displacement ratio of 25.8. With a BPA modified epoxy infused hull and deck, optimized uni-directional e-glass laminates, and synthetic hull coring, the 101 is the stiffest, lightest and strongest hull structure available in her size range amongst production builders.

The 101 features a fractional carbon fiber mast, carbon fiber rudder post and retractable carbon fiber bow sprit. Co-engineered by SP Systems, the world leader in composite engineering and materials technology, the mast section is optimized to the 101 with careful attention paid to minimize weight aloft. The 101’s carbon fiber mast is built using prepreg carbon fiber in aluminum tooling, and autoclave cured at temperatures of up to 250 degrees F and 100 psi. This yields a mast that weighs less than half of a comparable aluminum spar, yet is stronger and stiffer. With swept back spreaders led outboard to the hull sides, the 101 offers an impressive 671 square feet of upwind sail area without the hassle of large overlapping headsails. The retractable carbon fiber bow sprit and masthead asymmetrical spinnakers ensure exhilarating off wind performance while making the sailplan easily manageable when cruising or shorthanded.

Rakish deck designs have undergone a modern update on the 101. A nearly 12’ long cockpit provides plenty of working room for the crew. Molded braces provide secure seating for the driver and main trimmer located well clear of jib trimmers and forward crew. When she is not on the racecourse, the forward end of the cockpit features molded cockpit seats and deep coamings that provide secure, comfortable seating in all conditions.

Below decks, the 101 offers refined luxury in line with her pedigree. Lightweight composite components combined with varnished cherry cabinetry and laminated curved trims provide a spacious and comfortable interior while minimizing weight. Bulkheads are attached to hull, deck and interior components using engineered adhesives and epoxy resins; adding stiffness to the hull structure without adding weight. Accommodations for six are available in the forward double cabin, twin aft quarter berths and main cabin settees. The nav station to starboard accommodates full navigation and electrical instrumentation with a full-size chart table as an excellent working surface. The galley to port is fit with a large insulated icebox and deep stainless steel sink. Just forward of the main bulkhead is a large head with lightweight composite construction and molded-in sink. Aerospace quality composites, modern construction techniques and careful attention to detail afford the 101 with an interior arrangement that belies her performance capabilities.

Forward cabin:  The entrance to the forward stateroom also serves as the door to the head.  The forward berth is mounted low for easy use and is 84” x 71” x 14”.  There is a cubby space at the bow and storage beneath most of the berth.  On port, there is a full-height hanging locker with a smaller shelving locker forward, which has a fiddled shelf above it.  There are two LED strip lights on either side with an overhead hatch and two 12v. fans for ventilation.  The headroom in this space is 5’9”.

Head:  The head is forward and starboard. The forward head compartment is a mix of fiberglass and modular panels for easy cleanup.  As you enter, the head is directly in front of you and the sink is to your left. There is a locker beneath the sink and a medicine cabinet with mirrored doors above it.  Lighting is provided by one fixed light in the hullside and one LED strip light.  Headroom in this cabin is 5’9”.

Salon:  The salon settees are opposing and have clever movable seat back cushions.  These can be lifted and moved to the brackets towards centerline to form a padded leeboard.  Above and behind both settees are fiddled shelves running the length.  The starboard settee is 64” long and the port is 6’2”.  The headroom in this space is 6’. 

Nav station:  The Nav station is on starboard at the base of the companionway.  The nav table has storage beneath the lid and two drawers and one drop-down door locker beneath it. 

Galley:  The galley is on port at the base of the companionway.  It is “L” shaped with the sink oriented toward the centerline.  There is a locker beneath the sink as well as double doored storage above it.  The stove enclosure is aft along the hullside and has a drop-door locker beneath it. There is an under-counter light and 6 overhead LED lights illuminating this space.  Galley headroom is 5’10”.

Quarter Berths:  There are identical quarter berths on both port and starboard. The berths are 78”x 43”x 30” and contain a 5’ deep storage area at the foot of the bed.  There is a large opening porthole to the cockpit and an LED strip light in each space.
