Production

The design was built by Archambault Boats of Dangé-Saint-Romain, France, starting in 1968, but it is now out of production. Archambault, which had been founded in 1967, went out of business in 2015. With a length overall of 19.68 ft (6.00 m), the Bagheera was the smallest boat produced by Archambault. [1] [4]

Design

The Bagheera is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig with aluminum spars, a deck-stepped mast with wire standing rigging. The hull has a raked stem, a reverse transom, a lazarette, a skeg-mounted rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 882 lb (400 kg) and carries 463 lb (210 kg) of ballast. [1]

The boat has a draft of 3.12 ft (0.95 m) with the standard keel. The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and manoeuvring and has a hull speed of 5.29 kn (9.80 km/h). [1]
