The Sailfish 18 incorporates all the best features to make it a truly remarkable little ship. The cockpit has extra comfortable seats 6ft long and can accommodate four or more sailors in comfort for relaxed day sailing. The simple lead balanced retractable keel means the boat can be taken onto a beach and remain upright, yet gives excellent sailing performance when fully lowered. A Sailfish floats in 6” of water and is easy to launch and recover.

The cabin has the advantage of windows all round making it light and great to just sit on the comfortable bunks and view the surroundings. If you want to spend a weekend or longer the boat comes complete with chemical toilet and cooking area. There are two long bunks either side of the cabin for a peaceful nights rest or erect a boom tent over the cockpit for even more room, enough to take two more asleep. Can be sailed single handed and has a wide beam for stability, is inexpensive, and being trailerable, means not having to pay for expensive marina berths. The standard aluminium mast and boom are easily raised when ready to launch with roller reefing jib Complete with braked fully galvanised trailer A SAILFISH 18 makes an ideal day sailor or weekender being easy to trail behind the average family car as it comes with a fully galvanised trailer.
