Lancer 37
Description
The Lancer 37 is a classic American cruising sailboat produced by Lancer Yacht Corp. (Irvine, California) in the early 1980s (roughly 1981–1983). It was part of Lancer's lineup of performance-oriented fiberglass sloops, sharing design traits with their other models like the popular Lancer 36. The 37 was built in limited numbers and is relatively rare today. It features a masthead sloop rig, moderate displacement for good coastal cruising, and a reputation for decent sailing performance in a range of conditions.
