Safety | ||||
Due to design and construction ANIMA can be described as a reasonably safe vessel. | ||||
The heavy, well dimensioned oak-on-steel hull construction with its long-keel leaves some safety-buffer in case of collision or running aground. | ||||
Danger of man-over-board is compared to modern yachts extremely reduced by stable and high bulwark (30cm) and railing (90cm). In the small cockpit on-board-breaking water causes no effect by reduced buoyancy or stability. |
