About the MICROTONNER 19
Designed to Int. Micro Class Rule.
The Microtonner 19 is a lightweight, fractional sloop designed by Nestor Völker and built by Mariner in 1985. With a displacement of 1213.0 lb and a length overall of 18.04 ft, it represents a specific era of small, performance-oriented coastal cruising.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for coastal day sailing and light cruising where trailerability and ease of handling are prioritized over heavy-weather endurance or long-term liveaboard comfort.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low displacement of 1213.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 3.0, the Microtonner 19 is not recommended for extended bluewater passages due to its light weight and limited ballast of 397.0 lb.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include other 18-20 ft trailerable sloops from the 1980s, such as the O'Day 18 or Catalina 18, which share similar fractional rigging and coastal cruising roles.
