H-BoatH-Boat

Since the first H-Boat was built over 50 years ago, this yacht has enjoyed more success than almost any other keel boat class. Nearly 5,000 H-boats have been built to date, with over 500 sailing in Switzerland alone.

Largest international keel boat class

The H-Boat can be found on all European sailing waters. It is the largest international keel boat class, both in terms of regatta sailing and the number of boats built. In Switzerland alone, over 30 regattas are held annually on 5 to 7 lakes. In 1999, for example, the H-Boat World Championship was held on Lake Thun in Switzerland.
