LN 19 (Lockley-Newport 19)
Description
The LN 19 (also written as LN-19 or Lockley-Newport LN 19) is a compact, trailerable fiberglass daysailer / pocket cruiser built by Lockley Newport Boats (USA, based in Newport Beach, California, active in the 1970s–1980s). Designed by Stuart Windley (per some archival sources), it's a simple, affordable entry-level sailboat emphasizing light-air performance with a generous sail plan relative to its size, a swing centerboard for shallow draft/beaching/trailering, and a basic open cockpit (room for 3–4 people) with minimal cabin or cuddy for occasional overnights. Production was modest (exact numbers low, part of Lockley-Newport's fiberglass dinghy/daysailer lineup alongside models like Gloucester 19/20 and LN-23/27), making surviving examples somewhat uncommon but budget-friendly on the used market (~$2,000–$5,000 range historically for projects or restored ones). It's known from owner forums (e.g., Facebook's Lockley & Newport Boats Daysailers group) and restoration blogs for its forgiving handling, easy rigging, and suitability for lakes/ponds or coastal daysailing—similar in spirit to other 1970s–80s pocket sailers but with a swing keel for versatility.
