About the HARTLEY TS14

Sailpages Buyer's Take

The Hartley TS14 is a compact 14.0 ft trailer-sailer designed by R. T. Hartley and built starting in 1970. With a displacement of 600.0 lb and a fractional sloop rig, it represents a minimalist approach to small boat ownership, though the total number of hulls built is unknown.

Best for:
This boat is best suited for single-handers or couples seeking a lightweight, trailerable day-sailer for protected coastal waters. Its small size and low displacement make it ideal for owners with limited storage space who prioritize ease of transport over long-range cruising.
Bluewater capability:
With a displacement of 600.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 3.08, the TS14 is not designed for offshore bluewater cruising but is stable enough for protected coastal sailing.
Comparables:
Comparable boats include the O'Day 14 and the Micro Magic, which share similar dimensions and roles as entry-level trailer-sailers. These vessels are comparable due to their fractional sloop rigs and focus on simplicity and low maintenance for casual sailing.
