[edit on Wikidata]

The Com-Pac Legacy, also called the Com-Pac Legacy 17, is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed as a pocket cruiser and first built in 2006.[1][2]

The Com-Pac Legacy is a development of the 1972 Com-Pac 16.[1][2][3]

Production

The design was built by Com-Pac Yachts in the United States, starting in 2006.[1][2][4]

Design

The Com-Pac Legacy is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig; a plumb stem; a reverse transom that slopes to a plumb transom; a transom-hung, kick-up rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed stub keel, with a centerboard. It displaces 1,000 lb (454 kg) and carries 400 lb (181 kg) of lead ballast.[1][2]

The design incorporates a folding boom and mast that allows the mainsheet to be unhooked, the boom to be folded up against the mast and then the mast pivoted aft to lay on a transom-mounted crutch, making launching and recovery from the trailer easier.[2]

The boat has a draft of 3.51 ft (1.07 m) with the centerboard extended and 1.35 ft (0.41 m) with it retracted, allowing ground transportation on a trailer.[1][2]

The boat is normally fitted with a small 2 to 4 hp (1 to 3 kW) outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[1][2]

The design has sitting or sleeping accommodation for two people below decks. The head is a portable type. Cabin headroom is 39 in (99 cm).[1][2]

The design has a hull speed of 5.1 kn (9.4 km/h).[2]

Operational history

In a 2010 review Steve Henkel wrote, "the Com-Pac Legacy 17 is the successor to the Com-Pac 16, the first sailboat the Hutchins Company built, back in 1975, The new ... boat has gained three inches on the waterline compared to her older sister, adding a theoretical half a knot to her maximum speed. She is also 100 pounds lighter, with 50 of those coming out her [of] lead ballast. Most other dimensions remain the same as the original Com-Pac 16 ... While sailing, a slightly taller rig should make her faster in light air compared to her older sister. Worst features: Compared with her comp[etitor]s, relatively low headroom and narrow beam somewhat restrict cabin space."[2]
