The Sunmaid 20 is a hallmark of Australian trailer sailing history, widely regarded for its robust construction and offshoreinspired design. Conceived in 1972 by the respected New Zealand naval architect John B. Brooke—designer of the Sunburst and Frostbite dinghies—the vessel was intended to bridge the gap between small, flighty daysailers and serious keelboats. In Australia, the model was primarily manufactured by C.D. and E.M. Hall between 1975 and 1981, with production later shifting to Bolwell Fibreglass. Known for its distinct "miniature keelboat" feel, the Sunmaid 20 became a staple of the Trailer Sailer Association of South Australia and remains a frequent sight in regional cruising events. Over 250 units were produced, solidifying its status as one of the most successful production trailer yachts of its era.
