The Precision 185 CB (Centerboard) represents a modern evolution of the "big daysailer" concept, designed by renowned naval architect Jim Taylor and launched by Precision Boat Works in 2001. Developed to compete with established classics like the Rhodes 19 and Flying Scot, the 185 CB was built to offer a blend of contemporary performance and userfriendly ergonomics. Its design success was solidified when it was named the Sailing World 2003 Boat of the Year for Best Value. Unlike the more traditional, cabinequipped Precision 18, the 185 is an opencockpit vessel intended for highactivity daysailing and onedesign racing.
