The Guy Couach 1600 is a sailing schooner designed for offshore cruising with a double sandwich hull and good habitability, including three cabins with bathrooms.
This model mainly uses balsa and polyester for its hull, built in a single piece, ensuring strength and durability at sea.
The Guy Couach 1600 is ideal for long-distance cruising, although it is not optimized for race competition.
The Guy Couach 1600 has an acceptable total sail area of 120 m², providing good windward performance suitable for long voyages.
Points to check include the condition of the balsa, any renovation work on the interior layout, and the condition of the masts to ensure safety at sea.
