The DC‐14 Phantom is an American catamaran sailing dinghy that was designed by MacLear & Harris and first built in 1964.[1] [2] [3]
The design was built by Duncan Sutphen Inc. in the United States, but it is now out of production.[1]
The DC‐14 Phantom is a recreational sailboat, with its hulls built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig with a rotating mast. The hulls have raked stems, vertical transoms, dual transom-hung, kick-up rudders controlled by a tiller and retractable daggerboards. The boat displaces 3500NaN0 and has a central trampoline, stretched over a frame that mounts the hulls.[1] [3]
The boat has a draft of 2.18feet with the daggerboards extended and 6inches with them retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer. For transport or storage the hulls can be detached from the trampoline frame.[1] [3]
