The Tanzer 16 is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by Johann Tanzer and first built in 1963. The design is out of production.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]

Derived from the similar 1963 Constellation 16, the Tanzer 16 design was developed into the Overnighter 16 in 1964, by the addition of a cuddy cabin.^[1]^[3]^[5]^[6]

Production

The boat was built by Tanzer Industries in Canada and remained in production until the company went out of business in 1986.^[1]^[7]

The boat's class association acquired the tooling for the design after Tanzer Industries closed down, but it is unknown if more examples have been produced since then.^[1]

Design

The Tanzer 16 is a small recreational sailing dinghy, built predominantly of fibreglass, aluminum spars and oiled teak wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, with a roller-reefing boom, a transom-hung kick-up rudder, a spooned stem and a kick-up centreboard keel. It displaces 450 lb (204 kg) and has foam flotation.^[1]^[2]^[3]

The boat has a hull speed of 5.29 kn (9.80 km/h) and is capable of planing. Its broad beam and low centre-of-gravity result in increased stability.^[2]^[3]

The design has a Portsmouth Yardstick racing average handicap of 98.3.^[3]
