The protected cockpit prepared for guests aboard Paradigm Shift

Designed for life aboard

Bluewater capability. Everyday comfort.

Her efficient rig and sleek hulls keep her moving in lighter air—often still under sail when other cruising boats have started motoring. These same attributes provide comfort in the most sporty conditions.

Her 26-foot beam creates a genuine second living room in the protected cockpit, with the helm, dining table, and lounge seating together. Three cabins and three heads below give guests privacy, while broad decks and clear sightlines suit both cruising and training.
