Hull
The hull is made of fibreglass. Generally, a hull made of fibreglass requires only a minimum of maintenance during the sailing season. And outside the sailing season, just bottom cleaning and perhaps anti-fouling painting once a year - a few hours of work, that's all.

Interior
The interior is like most other boats made of teak.
The boat is equipped with 2 cabins, 4 berths, a galley, toilet facility and 80.0 liter waste water capacity.

Keel

The boat can enter even shallow marinas as the draft is just about 0.95 - 1.05 meter (3.12 - 3.42 ft) dependent on the load. See immersion rate below.


Engine

Forbina 10000 is typically equipped with an inboard Volvo Penta KAD 44 engine at 260.0 hp (193 kW).

The fuel tank has a capacity of 500.0 liters (132 US gallons, 109 imperial gallons).
