The Santana 21 is a recreational keelboat built by W. D. Schock Corp in the United States between 1969 and 1976, with 879 boats completed, but it is now out of production.[1][2][3][4][5][excessive citations]
The Santana 21 is built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a raked stem, a nearly-plumb transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a stub keel with a swing keel. It displaces 1,700 lb (771 kg) and carries 550 lb (249 kg) of iron ballast.[3][5]
The design has a draft of 5.00 ft (1.52 m) with the keel extended and 1.50 ft (0.46 m) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water, or ground transportation on a trailer.[3][5]
The boat is normally fitted with a small 3 to 6 hp (2 to 4 kW) outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[5]
The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and two straight settee berths in the main cabin. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the port side. Cabin headroom is 46 in (117 cm).[3][5]
For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a symmetrical or an asymmetrical spinnaker.[6]
The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 267 and a hull speed of 5.9 kn (10.9 km/h).[5]
