Ideal for daysailing and racing, Luger's Seabreeze 16 is great for overnighting and extended cruising, and she has a feel of a much larger yacht.  The Seabreeze is safe, stable, and easily single-handed -- whether you're a novice or an experienced sailor.  She rides on her bottom so she's dry in choppy seas and her semi-planing hull delivers top performance for many years of sailing excitement.  You'll find your Seabreeze to be as much fun (or maybe even more) than a much larger, more expensive craft.
      Trailer-sailing of the Seabreeze is especially convenient and the Seabreeze has roller reefing of mainsail as standard equipment.  Her lightweight aluminum mast (just 25 lbs.) is easily raised/lowered by one person.  Only the forestay is disconnected fitting on cabin top holds the mast securely at all times.

The Swing Keel and Rudder

      Seabreeze's ballasted swing keel rides up and over underwater obstructions and retracts almost completely within the hull for beaching and trailering.  When sailing, the swing keel can be positioned at any setting -- from full up to full down, thus allowing you to adjust the trim of your craft.  Seabreeze's rudder is instantly removable (no tools needed) for beaching and trailering.  Or, if you prefer, you can assemble the rudder to "tip-up" with a simple modification.  Seabreeze sails safely in the shallowest water.
