What are the basic measurments of an International One Meter (beside being one meter of course!)?

HULL DIMENSIONS (With the boat floating in fresh water):

Draught Min: 370mm Max: 420 mm

The depth of hull from waterline: 60 mm

Hull length: 1000 mm (or yep, you guessed it One Meter!)

BOAT WEIGHT

Total minimum weight of boat in with keel, rudder, sails and all other racing requirements, in dry condition: 4000 g

Keel, excluding fasteners to hull Min: 2200 g Max: 2500 g

Rudder, including stock: 75 g

MAST DIMENSIONS

Lower point to upper point

A-Rig or Mast 1: 1600 mm

B-Rig or Mast 2: 1180 mm

C-Rig or Mast 3: 880 mm

These measurements are taken from the IOM Class rules 2009 and should only be used inconjunction with that document in full.

There are lots of interesting rules that govern IOM sailing & design. Check it out in full in our technical links section.
