South Coast Seacraft Co.Founded by Hollis Metcalf, the South Coast Seacraft Company of Shreveport, Louisiana began production of the SC 23 and SC 21 in 1965. Both Carl Alberg designs. In a effort to capitalized on the emerging trailerable cruising boat market, Metcalf and his chief engineer, James Monroe, redesigned the SC 21 to include larger accommodations and a swing keel, which became the SC 22 and their most successful boat by far with over 3000 produced. In 1975 the company was sold to a group based in Chicago and the plant closed in June of 1981. Over 4,000 South Coast sailboats were produced. Associations- South Coast Seacraft (boats built by)

South Coast 22' sailboat no boom- Thread starter trucker22233

 trucker22233Hi Well where to start? This is my 1st sailboat. no Boom, rudder or sails. 1st question is I have a 25' mast how long of a boom will i need? So far last weekend I spent scrubbing scrubbing and more scrubbing. It looks like I will be repainting inside. outside of this boat is a bit milky but I'm hoping it will polish out.  Warren MilbergThe SC-22 is a very popular Alberg-designed trailer sailer. Lots of info online, including the sailplan. Take a look or contact the owner's assoc for more details. Good luck with your boat. http://southcoastus.tripod.com/  If you have a main sail that came with the boat, measure the short end (bottom or foot) your boom needs to be a tad bit longer than the foot of your main sail. Noticed that you sail you don't have sails...this is like buying a car without a motor or wheels! Hope you can source all the parts you'll need.

Click to expand try to backtrack to the last owner that stuff may have stored in a safe place to keep it pristine for when the rest of the boat was ready. put the mast up and verify that it's in good shape with good hardware and running rigging. are you trying to fully restore a boat or do you just want sail, learn a new language and meet really neat people? welcome to Trailer Sailers  trucker22233 said: Hi Well where to start?

southcoast 22 keel problemI have just purchased a 1974 Southcoast 22 and the swing keel does not drop all the way and something seems to be stopping it. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks.  Here is the spec for the South Coast 22': SOUTH COAST 22 sailboat specifications and details on sailboatdata.com I suspect that your swing keel weighs 500 Lbs. which should drop easily. What often happens with swing keel/center board boats is that marine growth jams up the slot or trunk where the swing keel lives. You are going to have to get into the slot with a flat metal tool and try to knock as much growth out of there as you can. I do this every year for the center board slot on my Tartan 27'. I get piles of barnacle shells falling out when I do this. A reasonable tool for this job is a flat metal bar or a small wood or sheet rock saw. Thanks . It was a fresh water boat. Does the keel have a locking pin? I have read somewhere that the Southcoast has one but I see none. Thanks for the help. Been working on my southcoast keel for about six months now off and on while the boat sits up on bocks at a friends house. My keel came free of the trunk pretty easily but then I found the solid resin skin had been comprimised to the point of about 70% delamination from the now rusting cast iron. I expect you freed yours by now, there is a lot of room in the trunk so just be 100% sure of your cable or blocks so it does not fall unexpectedly. Then you will need to chip off any loose resins to bare metal and sandblask and prime to seal out new rust before starting to put things right. I installed a set of new bronze eyelets for the main bolt hole and the lift cable hole and glassed/resined them in place after a snug fit into a drilled out hole. This will keep the pin and cable bracket from digging back into the resin and exposing the iron to water again anytme soon and after this job you will want to forget about the keel for a few years. I used a new 316 stainles keel bolt with SS retaining clamps and installed a PVC skid plate onto the leading bottom edge of the keel after final fiberglass applications to protect the fiberglass edge from running aground and exposing the iron. Simply cut a piece of pvc pipe in half and fiberglassed about 12" of one half onto the lower leading edge. If you are already where I am, let me know if you had to strip the keel resin. I need to know what a good fairing job looks like for this particular keel but have not found anything yet to look at that is in good shape to see what shape that might be. I expect I have some work still to do in that area.  Hi there, i know this is a very late post but am looking for some help. I just bought a SC 22 and the previous owner had removed the fiberglass fro. Around the main pin in the cabin. I dont know if i can just re fiberglass directly over the pin. Does the pin rotate in the fiberglass?? Any help would be really appreciated. OH, they do have a locking pin but it should be visible as an extra bolt just aft of the keel pin location. I believe there may also be a "up" position lock hole for the bolt forward of the main bolt but my boat doeas not have either anymore. I suspect for a boat this size they become a pain to remember to reposition each time the keel is adjusted and would not allow for locking in the keel at intermittent positions. also likely allowed water to spalsh in some possibly.

Boats should be small enough to carry, or large enough to live on. This boat is difficult to transport, and too tiny to live on in any state called "comfort."
South Coast redesigned the Alberg SOUTH COAST 21 by lengthening it, enlarging the cabin trunk, and replacing the fin keel with a swing keel. It was the most successful boat built by South Coast Co. with over 3000 produced. Nearly the same as the NORTHBRIDGE ECLIPSE.
DaggerBoard. The South Coast 22 (Murray) is equipped with a daggerboard keel. A daggerboard is a lifting keel that can be lowered and raised, allowing the boat to enter shallow waters as well. The boat can sail close to the beach as the draft is just 0.25 - 0.35 meter (0.82 - 1.12 ft) dependent of the load. See immersion rate below.

The boat is in pristine condition, but I like the layout of the Catalina better, and I can't fix that later if I go with the South Coast. The dealer is asking $2,800 for the Catalina, and the South Coast guy is asking $2,250. Any thoughts would be appreciated. I don't want to get stuck with a lemon or get in over my head.
