History

Drawn up for Massachusetts Bay clubs after the Second World War, the 210 was built to be an affordable, one-design keelboat that clubs could race against each other on equal terms. It started life in plywood, moved to fibreglass hulls from 1967, and has stayed in production for close to eighty years.

Sailing Characteristics

The 210 is unusual for a keelboat in that it carries no mainsail at all, so the jib powers it upwind and the spinnaker takes over off the breeze. At over a tonne with a deep iron keel, it tracks steadily and rewards good crew work rather than raw boat speed.

Racing Context

Active fleets race out of Massachusetts Bay, Maine, Michigan, Wisconsin and Hawaii under the International 210 Class Association, with club racing that has run continuously since the late 1940s.
