The Phantom 14 is a recreational sailboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a Lateen rig, a raked stem, a vertical transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a retractable daggerboard. It displaces 120 lb (54 kg). PA Reg.
Includes:: Trailer. PA Reg. Recently replaced cockpit drain. Receipt. FAST RACER.
The boat has a draft of 2.83 ft (0.86 m) with the daggerboard extended and 0.31 ft (0.094 m) with it retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer or car roof rack.[1]
The design uses sail sleeves, with the hard-coated aluminum spars inserted into the sleeves to rig the boat. This results in less aerodynamic drag and creates an even sail shape. The boat is equipped with hiking straps and has a storage compartment in the cockpit. The hull has a high bow design and molded in coaming to reduce the submarining of the bow that is common with "board boats". The sail halyard is routed through the coaming.[2]
