The Stiletto 23 serves as the distilled essence of Force Engineering’s design philosophy, offering a lighter, more agile alternative to its legendary 27-foot predecessor. Launched during the late 1970s and early 1980s, the Stiletto 23 was engineered to bridge the gap between high-performance beach catamarans like the Hobie 16 and dedicated coastal cruisers. It remains one of the few production multihulls of its era to utilize aerospace-grade materials, specifically a pre-preg epoxy and Nomex honeycomb core construction. This technical choice resulted in a vessel that was remarkably stiff and light, weighing significantly less than contemporary fiberglass monohulls of similar length. The boat was marketed as a "pocket rocket" for sailors who prioritized speed and trailerability over the voluminous accommodations of heavier cruisers.
