About the JAGUAR 22
European version of the CATALINA 22. The ALACRITY 22 is also similar.
Designed by Frank V. Butler and built by Russell Marine Ltd. (UK), the Jaguar 22 is a compact trailer-sailer with 1500 hulls built in 1975. Its lightweight displacement of 2250.0 lb and fin keel configuration prioritize ease of transport and coastal performance over heavy offshore stability.
- Best for:
- This boat suits coastal cruisers and trailer-sailers seeking a manageable, single-handed friendly vessel for day sailing and short overnight trips. It is ideal for owners who prioritize easy launching and storage over long-range bluewater capability.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low displacement of 2250.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 2.34, the Jaguar 22 is not recommended for extended offshore passages due to its light weight and limited ballast of 549.9 lb.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the O'Day 23 and Catalina 22, which share similar trailer-sailer dimensions and masthead sloop rigs from the same era. These models offer similar beam and draft characteristics, making them direct competitors in the 20-23 ft trailerable market.
