About the HENLEY 20
The Henley 20 is a compact, lightweight trailer-sailer designed for easy transport and coastal cruising. Built by Halman Manufacturing Co in Canada in 1984, this masthead sloop features a full keel and a displacement of 1200.0 lb.
- Best for:
- This boat is ideal for single-handers or couples seeking a low-maintenance, trailerable package for protected waters and short coastal hops.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low displacement of 1200.0 lb and a comfort ratio of 6.7, this boat is strictly a coastal cruiser and is not suitable for offshore or bluewater passages.
- Comparables:
- Comparable to other 1980s trailer-sailers like the O'Day 23 or Catalina 22, though the Henley 20 is significantly lighter and narrower, prioritizing transportability over interior volume.
