The Sandpiper 565 is trailerable sailboat that was designed by the British-based Portuguese naval architect Leonardo da Costa Sayago and first built in 1972. The design is out of production.[1][2][3]
Production
The boat was built by Sandpiper Marine of Southampton, England, United Kingdom and CL Sailboats in Canada, with a total of 1500 completed.[1]

The design was also produced under license in Sweden as the Ockelbo OS 19.[1]
Design
The Sandpiper 565 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a transom-hung rudder and a retractable fin keel. It displaces 1,200 lb (544 kg) and carries 300 lb (136 kg) of iron ballast.[1][2]
The boat has a draft of 2.90 ft (0.88 m) with the keel down and 0.83 ft (0.25 m) with the keel retracted.[1]
The boat has hull speed of 5.19 kn (9.61 km/h).[2]
The design includes a high freeboard and a deep cockpit. It has sleeping accommodation for two adults and two small children below decks. The Sandpiper 565 was designed to be transported on a trailer towed by an automobile. With its fully retractable daggerboard keel it can operate in shallow water, including being easily be beached.[4]
