Indian River 22
Description
The Indian River 22 (IR-22), a classic fiberglass one-design daysailer/racer from the 1960s–1970s built in Merritt Island, Florida, features a simple, efficient fractional sloop rig optimized for club racing on the Indian River Lagoon. While detailed technical drawings (e.g., full sail plan diagrams) are scarce online due to its regional production run of ~60–80 hulls and lack of modern digitization, the sail plan is well-documented through class specifications and owner resources. It emphasizes a large, powerful mainsail for light Florida winds, paired with a working jib for versatility.
