About the HURLEY 22R
After Hurley Marine went out of business, the boat was built by South Coast Marine and then Ravensail. Ravensail called their version the HURLEY 22R. Some have bilge (twin) keels and some have a fin/w spade rudder.
Designed by Ian L. Anderson and built by Ravensail (UK), the Hurley 22R is a compact coastal cruiser with a production run of 42 hulls from 1982–1988. Its 3900.0 lb displacement and 3.75 ft max draft reflect a design optimized for trailerability and manageable handling.
- Best for:
- This boat suits coastal cruisers and trailer-sailers seeking a manageable 22.0 ft LOA package with a 7.42 ft beam for interior comfort. It is well-suited for single-handers or couples who prioritize ease of transport and storage over long-range offshore passage making.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 1.89 and a comfort ratio of 22.56, the Hurley 22R is designed for coastal and bay cruising rather than serious bluewater voyaging.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the O'Day 23 and Pearson 22, which share similar 22-foot footprints and trailer-sailer roles. These vessels offer similar masthead sloop rigs and fin keels, providing a benchmark for performance and layout in this size class.
