Seidelmann 24
Description
The Seidelmann 24 (also known as the Seidelmann 24-1) is a compact, trailerable American racer-cruiser sailboat designed by Bob Seidelmann (founder of Seidelmann Yachts), Bruce Kirby (famous for the Laser and Sonar), and W. Ross. It was first built in 1981 by Seidelmann Yachts in Berlin, New Jersey (USA), with some production by Paceship Yachts in Canada. This model combines a Sonar-influenced hull (fast, performance-oriented) with Seidelmann's racer-cruiser deck and features, making it a fun, capable daysailer/weekender for club racing, coastal cruising, or lake use.
