The Edel 665 is a French sailboat, that was designed by Maurice Edel and first built in 1984. It was marketed as the Edel 660 in France and is sometimes referred to as the Edel 6.[1] [2]
The design was built by Construction Nautic Edel in France and also at its Canadian subsidiary, Edel Canada. Between 1975 and 1984 a total of 900 examples were completed.[1] [3]
The Edel 665 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with mahogany wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a raked stem, a vertical transom, a skeg-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 24030NaN0 and carries 8820NaN0 of ballast.[1] [2]
The boat has a draft of 3.25feet with the standard keel fitted. The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[1]
Features include a lifting eye on the keel to facilitate winching the boat in and out of the water with a crane, opening foredeck hatch, a mainsheet traveller and genoa tracks. Accommodations can sleep four people on a "V"-berth, a convertible settee and quarter berth. Factory options included jibsheet winches, a hydraulic "pop-top", a recirculating head and a spinnaker.[2]
The design has a hull speed of 5.722NaN2.[4]
The design was named Boat of the Year at the Paris Boat Show.[2]
