With the Belle daysailer complete–and currently sailing in the Chesapeake–I’m forseeing a three-boat range of Belle-inspired boats:
- 16ft daysailer (Belle)
The original. Pure daysailer. - 18'9" daysailer/cruiser (Belle 19)
Daysailer with cuddy. Just enough room for a small V-bunk.
Almost two feet shorter than the 20.5, but the essentials are preserved: a small cabin for getting out of the weather, sleepable cockpit seats, and fine performance. Click the link to learn more.
