From Open Encyclopedia
The Moore 24 is a type of sailboat.
Designed by Santa Cruz, California surfer/sailor, George Olson, it is one of the first ultralight displacement sailboats, entering production in 1972. This design, along with the Santa Cruz 27 and Olson 30 changed the world of performance sailing with their breakaway downwind speed. Well founded rumor has it that George Olson was going to abandon the mold to the original Moore 24, Gretel with a wild ride down a hill, in the mold of course, when it was rescued by Ron Moore and put into production, the rest is history.
This 2100 pound, 24 foot fiberglass sloop is used primarily for racingand fast daysailing.
The Express 27, was greatly influenced by the Moore 24 Moore 24.
