Design

edit

The Evasion 22 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of glassfibre, with wood trim. The hull is solid fibreglass and the deck is balsa-cored. It has a masthead sloop rig, with a deck-stepped mast, one set of unswept spreaders and aluminium spars with continuous stainless steel wire standing rigging. The hull has a raked stem, an angled transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a wheel internally in the pilot house and tiller in the cockpit. It has a fixed fin keel or optional dual bilge keels. The boat displaces 3,968 lb (1,800 kg) and carries 1,609 lb (730 kg) of ballast.[1][2][3][4][5][10]

The design has a draft of 3.28 ft (1.00 m) with the standard fin keel and 2.79 ft (0.85 m) with the optional twin keels.[1][2][3][4][5][10]

The boat is fitted with an inboard diesel engine of 8 to 25 hp (6 to 19 kW).[4][5][10]

The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and a drop down dinette table that forms a double berth in the pilot house. The galley is located on the port side just forward of the companionway ladder, aft of the steering station. The galley is of straight configuration and is equipped with a two-burner stove, an ice box and a sink. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the port side. Cabin headroom is 68 in (173 cm). The fresh water tank has a capacity of 13.2 U.S. gallons (50 L; 11.0 imp gal).[1][2][3][4][5][10]

The design has a hull speed of 5.87 kn (10.87 km/h).[1][2][3][4][5]
