There were two versions. The one with deeper keel also has a taller rig. This was supposed to enhance sailing performance. Mine is the 1.55 version. I have not been in a position to compare the two, but presumably with a larger sail area the thinking was that sail performance would be enhanced. As I live on mine, the extra weight she carries probably negates any advantage!
