The Precision 14 is an American sailing dinghy that was designed by Stephen Seaton as a day sailer and first built in 1985.[1] [2] [3]
The design was built by Precision Boat Works in Palmetto, Florida, United States, starting in 1985, but it is now out of production.[1] [3] [4]
The Precision 14 is a recreational sailboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig; a raked stem; a plumb transom; a transom-hung, kick-up rudder controlled by a tiller, with a hiking stick and a retractable centerboard. It displaces 2500NaN0.[1] [3]
The boat has a draft of 2.75feet with the centerboard extended and 0.42feet with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water, beaching or ground transportation on a trailer.[1] [3]
