Chrysler Dagger
Description
The Chrysler Dagger (also known as the C-14 Dagger) is a nimble, fiberglass daysailer from the mid-1970s, crafted by Chrysler Marine as an accessible "pocket yacht" for casual recreation on ponds, small lakes, or sheltered waters. Designed with simplicity in mind, its cat-rigged setup makes it a breeze for solo sailors, beginners, or families—think easy rigging in under 5 minutes and forgiving handling for learning the ropes. Production ran from about 1974–1978, with around 1,000 built.
