Tylercraft 24
Description
The Tylercraft 24 is a classic American pocket cruiser designed by Ted Tyler and built by Tylercraft (USA) starting in 1961. It is one of the most common models from this small builder, known for its twin/bilge keel configuration that allows the boat to dry out upright on a falling tide — a practical feature for coastal or tidal waters. It also came in optional fin keel and centerboard versions.
