The DS-16 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a transom-hung rudder and a fixed shallow draft keel or optionally a centreboard. It displaces Шаблон:Convert and carries Шаблон:Convert of ballast.[1][2]

The centreboard version has a draft of Шаблон:Convert with the centreboard extended and Шаблон:Convert with it retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer.[1][2]

The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[1][2]

The design has a hull speed of Шаблон:Convert.[2]

Operational history

In a review Michael McGoldrick wrote, "The DS 16 is probably the smallest sailboat with lockable cuddy cabin that you'll find... The cabin has a little over 3 feet (1 metre) of sitting headroom and is supposed to have enough space for a double berth, although it's likely to be extremely cramped for two adults... With a total length of 16 feet (4.88 m) and weight of only 650 pounds (295 kg), it should be possible to trailer the DS 16 with almost any car."[4]
