About the GLASSLINE 22
'Splashed' copy or clone of the YNGLING.
The Glassline 22 is a compact fractional sloop designed by Jan Linge and built by Glassline Products, Inc. in the USA. Production records indicate a build year of 1979, with the total number of hulls built remaining unverified in available data.
- Best for:
- This vessel is best suited for coastal cruising and daysailing due to its lightweight displacement of 1323.0 lb and manageable LOA of 20.83 ft. Its fractional sloop rig and fin keel configuration offer ease of handling for single-handers or couples seeking a trailerable package.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low displacement of 1323.0 lb and a comfort ratio of 11.88, the Glassline 22 is not designed for extended bluewater passages but is adequate for protected coastal waters. Its capsize ratio of 2.07 suggests reasonable stability for its size, though its light weight limits heavy-weather endurance.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats from this era include the O'Day 23 and Pearson 22, which share similar fractional sloop rigs and trailerable dimensions. These models are comparable because they target the same market of entry-level cruisers prioritizing ease of transport and coastal performance over heavy offshore capability.
