The Gloucester 22 is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Stuart Windley and Harry R. Sindle as a cruiser and first built in 1983.[1][2][3][4]

Production

The Gloucester 22 is a development of the 1978 Lockley-Newport LN 23. The Gloucester 22 was built by Gloucester Yachts in the United States from 1983 until the company closed in 1988, having built 100 examples. It was developed into the Classic 22 (Windley) in 1990 and built by Classic Yachts of Chanute, Kansas, until 2000.[1][4][5][6]

Design

The Gloucester 22 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a raked stem, a plumb transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed stub keel, with a retractable centerboard. It displaces Шаблон:Convert and carries Шаблон:Convert of ballast.[1][4]

The boat has a draft of Шаблон:Convert with the centerboard extended and Шаблон:Convert with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water or ground transportation on a trailer.[1][4]

The boat is normally fitted with a small Шаблон:Convert outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[1][4]

The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and a two straight settee berths in the main cabin. The slide-out galley is located on the starboard side just aft of the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove. Cabin headroom is Шаблон:Convert.[1][4]

The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 186 and a hull speed of Шаблон:Convert.[4]

Operational history

In a 2010 review Steve Henkel wrote, "This vessel ... represents a genre of relatively lightweight and bare-bones designs that can be produced and sold relatively cheaply. Best features: She has the lowest minimum draft with board up compared with her comp[etitor]s, good for exploring shoal waters under power—though ... her stub keel keeps her from being in the easiest group for trailer launching and retrieving. Her high-aspect centerboard drops down to give her a draft of almost five feet, giving good performance to windward. She has six opening ports plus a small ventilation hatch forward, an advantage in sultry weather. Worst features: Construction is only so-so, as the boat is targeted to a thrifty audience. The low cost is obtained partly by offering what is usually standard equipment as optional. A pivoting rudder is optional, but should have been standard; there is danger of clipping it off as it extends below the board-up keel draft."[4]
