Melges Performance Sailboats

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Melges Performance Sailboats, is a United States company founded by Harry Melges, father of former Olympic sailor Buddy Melges. The about six hundred existing boats are approximately evenly split between North America and Europe, with fleets in Japan as well. The boats were designed by the Reichel/Pugh design team, and went into production during the 1990's.

Reichel/Pugh designed several Melges boats: Melges 17, Melges 24, Melges 30, and the Melges 32
