BayCruiser 21
Description
The BayCruiser 21 is the pinnacle of modern-day cruiser design—an exquisite blend of performance, safety, and versatility that has earned its place as our best-selling model. Quick and responsive under sail, stable and self-righting thanks to her water ballast system, and easily towed and launched with an average car, she embodies the freedom and elegance that sailors seek.
Every detail of the BayCruiser 21 is crafted to elevate your experience on the water. Her sleek carbon rig supports a fully battened fat-head mainsail and blade jib, offering enhanced performance while remaining easy to rig single-handedly. The innovative swing keel and rudder lift fully, allowing her to navigate shallow waters or dry out on the beach, while her recessed foredeck and dedicated anchor locker ensure safe and effortless handling at the bow.
Her spacious self-draining cockpit seats six comfortably, with additional lounging space on moulded bulwarks by the outboard well—perfect for relaxing at anchor or soaking in the sun. For swimmers or man-overboard recovery, the partially open transom provides easy access to the water. Below deck, the cozy cabin sleeps two in comfort, with thoughtful touches like storage for batteries, a dedicated space for an electric or petrol outboard, and a retractable bowsprit to minimize marina costs.
For extended cruising, the optional spray hood shelters a cleverly designed space for outdoor cooking, keeping the cabin cool and safe while expanding your culinary options on longer voyages. The BayCruiser 21 is not just a boat; it’s a testament to refinement and innovation—a vessel built to inspire confidence, adventure, and a lifetime of cherished memories on the water.
Step aboard and discover why sailors everywhere have fallen in love with this exceptional cruiser.
