The Edel 820 is a French sailboat that was designed by Maurice Edel and first built in 1980.[1] [2] [3]
The design was built by Construction Nautic Edel in France and also at its Canadian subsidiary, Edel Canada. Between 1980 and 1982 a total of 60 examples were completed. The boat is now out of production.[1] [3] [4]
The Edel 820 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with teak wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel or tiller and a fixed fin keel or stub keel and centreboard. It displaces 70500NaN0 and carries 26460NaN0 of ballast.[1] [2] [3]
The keel-equipped version of the boat has a draft of 4.33feet, while the centreboard-equipped version has a draft of 5.92feet with the centreboard extended and 3.28feet with it retracted.[1] [3]
The boat is fitted with a Swedish Volvo Penta MD7A diesel engine of 130NaN0 connected to a Volvo Penta 110S saildrive. Some boats have been retrofitted with a small outboard motor in place of the inboard diesel, for docking and maneuvering.[2]
Below decks the design has 60NaN0 headroom. Sleeping accommodation is provided for six adults, with a "V"-berth forward, two berths in the main cabin and two aft berths. The design employs teak brightwork. The galley has a two-burner gimbaled propane-powered stove an ice box and a manually-pumped water system. There is also a navigation chart table and a head with an tank.[2]
The design has a hull speed of 6.36kn.[3]
