The design was built by Jeanneau in France, starting in 1970, but it is now out of production.[1][2][3][4][5]
Design
The Cape Breton is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractionalsloop rig. The hull has a raked stem, a slightly angled transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed long keel, with a retractable centerboard. It displaces 616 lb (279 kg) and carries 298 lb (135 kg) of ballast.[1][2]
The boat has a draft of 3.28 ft (1.00 m) with the centerboard extended and 0.98 ft (0.30 m) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water, beaching or ground transportation on a trailer.[1][2]
