About the AMF 2100
Designed by Ted Hood and built by AMF (USA) from 1980–1983, the AMF 2100 is a compact fractional sloop with a displacement of 2200.0 lb and a beam of 8.0 ft. While the exact hulls built count is unknown, the model is characterized by its lightweight construction and moderate comfort ratio of 11.43.
- Best for:
- This boat suits coastal cruisers and weekenders who prioritize ease of handling and trailerability over heavy offshore protection. Its low displacement and fractional rig make it particularly appealing to single-handers or couples seeking a manageable, responsive day-sailer.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 2.46 and a low D/L ratio of 180.77, the AMF 2100 is best suited for protected coastal waters rather than extended bluewater passages. Its lightweight hull and variable keel options prioritize performance in light winds over heavy-weather stability.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the Catalina 22 and O'Day 23, which share similar beam dimensions and fractional sloop rigs from the same era. These models are comparable because they target the same market of entry-level cruisers seeking stable, easy-to-maintain 21-23 foot platforms.
