Gin Fizz 37 - Jeanneau / STW001114

The early models were generally ketch rigged, such as Laura Dekkers Guppy but switched to sloop later in production. There seems to be little advantage to the ketch rig despite slightly greater sail area. John Kretschmer, writing for Sailing Magazine, maintains that the sloop version is more practical, more manouverable, and with less clutter in the cockpit.

Both aft and centre-cockpit models were offered. The center-cockpit's aft cabin isn't exactly palatial and could be described as an oversized storage locker but it makes for a good seagoing berth, and is in easy reach of the cockpit wheel.
