The Etap 21i represents the Belgian shipyard's mastery of the small cruiser segment, successfully blending the brand’s hallmark "unsinkable" construction with contemporary, performanceoriented lines by naval architect Jacques de Ridder. Launched in the mid1990s as a successor to the earlier Etap 20 and 22 models, the 21i was engineered to provide a modern, sporty sailing experience while retaining the high safety standards that defined Etap’s market position. The vessel’s core technical distinction is its doubleskin hull construction, where closedcell polyurethane foam is injected between the inner and outer fiberglass skins. This provides enough buoyancy to keep the boat afloat and sailable even if completely swamped, while also offering exceptional thermal and acoustic insulation—a rarity in boats of this size.
