Fox 22

More information about the Fox 22

The Fox 22 is a striking presence on the water. The steep bow, flat deck, and open transom with an outboard rudder give it a distinctive and recognizable silhouette. This compact sailboat combines reliability, comfort, and sporty performance with surprisingly low maintenance requirements. A strong, stable, and fast boat that's easy to handle – exactly what many sailors are looking for.

In various tests conducted by renowned boating magazines such as Zeilen, Watersport, Yacht, and Yacht Vision, the Fox 22 consistently ranks as one of the most stable and enjoyable sailboats in its class. The boat distinguishes itself with excellent handling, a solid design, and a no-nonsense character. The long waterline, wide stern, and light weight ensure minimal water resistance. Combined with the modern 7/8 rig, this results in a sporty sailing yacht that comes alive in the slightest breeze. The Fox 22 responds instantly to rudder and sail trim, making her a favorite with both recreational sailors and sporty boaters.

Below deck, the Fox 22 also offers a surprising amount of comfort. The cabin accommodates four adults, with four comfortable berths and a practical layout. The design is deliberately simple, offering ample space on deck and in the cockpit, and a minimalist design focused on sailing pleasure without unnecessary luxury. The philosophy behind this design is clear: less technology means less maintenance, lower costs, and more time for sailing.

Since 2001, Ottenhome Heeg has built and sold over 385 Fox 22s. This success speaks volumes. The Fox 22 has also found international markets in countries like Belgium, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland – testament to the enduring quality and timeless sailing pleasure this Dutch classic offers.
