Chesapeake 20
2 / 9 - score 59%
The Chesapeake 20 is a 20.0ft fractional sloop designed by Ernest H. Hartge and built in wood or fiberglass since 1939.
250 units have been built.
The Chesapeake 20 is a light sailboat which is a very high performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a racing boat.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
