About the Melges 14
Built by Melges Performance Sailboats in Zenda, Wisconsin, USA and designed by Reichel/Pugh, the Melges 14 is a modern singlehanded one-design, yet also has the ability to cruise with two people. The Melges 14 was honored as Sailing World’s 2016 Boat of the Year – Best Dinghy. The boat is 14 feet and features a large, open cockpit so no bailing is required. The carbon mast and boom complements its modern, flexible sail plan with three rigs: Gold (98 sq. ft.), Blue (85 sq. ft.), and Red (58 sq. ft.).With boats in North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa, the Melges 14 is emerging as a true high performance one-design racing boat, just two years after its introduction. It’s speed, quality, durability, comfort and fun wrapped into one dynamic sailing package. Sailors can order a custom Melges 14 dolly, easily car top it or tow it behind any vehicle. It’s perfect as a beach boat, a family-style sailboat or a one-design racing platform. For more information about the Melges 14, visit melges14.com.
