The Hms 18 is a 18.75ft fractional sloop designed by Herb Stewart and built in fiberglass between 1973 and 1974.
70 units have been built.
The Hms 18 is a light sailboat which is a good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-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.
