The Sunbeam 22, produced by the Austrian shipyard Schöchl Yachtbau, stands as one of the most successful and enduring small cruisers in European sailing history. First introduced in the late 1960s, this 6.7-meter pocket cruiser was designed specifically to navigate the challenging, often light-wind conditions of Alpine lakes while remaining robust enough for coastal waters. With over 1,000 units produced during its original production run, it served as the cornerstone for the Sunbeam brand’s reputation for high-quality construction and longevity. The boat was built using hand-laid fiberglass, a testament to the shipyard's early commitment to durability, and was offered in several keel configurations to accommodate different sailing environments. While the original Sunbeam 22 ceased production in the 1980s, its legacy was so significant that the shipyard launched the "Sunbeam 22.1" in 2016 as a modern spiritual successor, featuring a contemporary hull shape and carbon-reinforced components while maintaining the same spirit of versatility.
