TANGO 22 has been sailed on the Choptank and the mid to upper Chesapeake every summer since 2009. The boat has been racing with the local sailing club, ESSA, since 2010. With a rating of 240 she has faired well in non-spin competition. The boat is easy to sail as I often sail solo. She handles rough conditions very well and safely.

Anyone looking at boats in the 20 to 24 foot range
should take a close look at the Tanzer 22. Over 2200 of these boats were built.
In fact, anyone buying a Tanzer 22 will quickly discover that they are part of
a network of owners who take a great deal of pride in their boats.
All this means that many Tanzer 22s are being actively raced as a one-design or under PHRF. But this is also a boat that can take a small family out for a short cruise. It has a big cockpit and a flush deck which provides for lots of sunbathing space. Below there is more room than first meets the eye, despite the fact that the bulkhead which divides the v-berth from the main cabin gives the appearance of cramped quarters. On top of all this, the Tanzer 22 has gained a considerable reputation for seagoing capabilities. While this boat was available with a swing keel, most were built with the fin keel.
