About Mutineer 15

The Mutineer 15 is a great combination of comfortable family daysailer and 2-person race boat. With comfort and convenience features like molded-in bench seating, furling jib, kick-up rudder and retracting centerboard, it makes a great family boat. With performance features like 150 square feet of upwind sail, 166 square foot spinnaker, spinnaker launching snout, this 15 footer performs well in all wind ranges. Weighing only 410 pounds it is easy to trailer or dolly launch, and sets up quickly.
