US 21
Description
The US 21 (also known as the US Yachts US 21) is a lightweight, trailerable fractional sloop daysailer/weekender built by US Yachts / Bayliner (part of the Buccaneer/US Yachts family) in the early 1980s. It was developed as an affordable, fun performance-oriented pocket boat with a small cuddy cabin. Production was relatively short-lived; the design later evolved into the Triton 21 after Pearson acquired the tooling.
