The Holder 17 is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Ron Holder as a pocket cruiser and day sailer and first built in 1982.[1][2][3]

The boat was developed from the 1976 Vagabond 17 design.[1][4]

Production

The design was built by Holder Marine and Hobie Cat in the United States, but it is now out of production.[1][3][5]

Design

The Holder 17 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with teak wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig with aluminum spars. The hull has a raked stem, a vertical transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a locking swing keel. The boat has foam flotation, making it unsinkable. Cabin headroom is Шаблон:Convert.[1][3][6]

The boat is normally fitted with a small Шаблон:Convert outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[3]

The design has a hull speed of Шаблон:Convert.[3]

Operational history

In a 2010 review, Steve Henkel wrote, "unlike most of Hobie Cat's boats, the Holder 17 is neither a catamaran nor a product of the fertile mind of Hobie Alter, the multibull firm's namesake. It is instead a 'monomaran' from the drawing board of businessman and designer Ron Holder. First came the cabin sloop, in 1981; the next year, a daysailer version was introduced. Best features: The Holder has good sitting headroom compared to her comps. Foam flotation is intended to make her more or less sink-proof. Her relatively heavy swing keel keeps her minimum draft low for easy launching and retrieval at a ramp, while offering good stability with the keel in the 'down' position. With relatively high D/L and low SA/D compared with her comps, she should be stable in heavy air. Worst features: The steel swing keel can be a pain in the neck to keep from rusting."[3]
