2.4 Metre (keelboat) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

   About the 2.4 metre
The 2.4 Metre originated from Stockholm in 1983 by local yacht designers who used the "R Metre" rule to create a single-handed keelboat the 2.4mR.  It is a thoroughbred racer that has the complexity of a sophisticated keelboat, without the high costs, and the fingertip feeling of a dinghy.  As a sister to the bigger 6m, 8m and 12m yachts, she possesses the typical powerful Metre boat sailing style.

The 2.4 Metre is a responsive little racer and is sailed single handed. It is a very seaworthy keelboat despite its small size.  It is a boat where physical strength is not an important factor.
