The Precision 13 is an American single-handed sailing dinghy that was designed by Stephen Seaton as a racer and first built in 1985.
Production
The design was built by Precision Boat Works in Palmetto, Florida, United States, starting in 1985, but it is now out of production.
Design
The Precision 13 is a recreational sailboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with aluminum spars. It has a catboat rig, a raked stem, a plumb transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a retractable daggerboard. It displaces 140 lb (64 kg).
The boat has a draft of 2.67 ft (0.81 m) with the daggerboard extended and 0.33 ft (0.10 m) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water, beaching or ground transportation on a trailer or car rooftop.
