From the outset the V-15 was designed to provide high performance in an extremely simple, comfortable, and durable package. The V-15 hull shape was tank tested to plane easily in moderate air and carry a wide range of crew weights effortlessly. The result is a hull that can be sailed competitively by crews ranging from 260-340 lbs. The wide, flat stern provides unmatched stability and control in all wind and sea conditions.
The Vanguard 15 Class Association sanctions hundreds of events all over the nation. From family-oriented "Great Escape" weekends to a regional and national level racing circuit, everyone will have something to gun for.
