18' Sanderling
The Sanderling is a common sense daysailer/weekender offering a spacious cockpit and roomy cabin unrivaled by any boat of similar length. Easy to single hand, sail with kids, or sail across the bay with four or five friends. Her size, stability, and self bailing cockpit allow her to withstand some of the most challenging conditions you may encounter. She is a quick, responsive, one-design which is being raced in ever growing fleets in the Chesapeake, New Jersey, and New England.
In 2009 we designed a molded cockpit that offers a cleaner look with reduced maintenance and increased comfort.
Looking for an even larger cockpit? She is also available as an open cockpit daysailer. The same hull and rig as the traditional Sanderling, and ideal for those who prefer only to daysail. She has the capability to fit up to eight adults comfortably and is perfect for afternoon cocktails and hors d’oeuvres.
The Sanderling is one of the oldest continuously produced fiberglass boats on the market and we are proud to have built over 860 of them since 1962.
