The Columbia 24 is a series of American sailboats that were designed by Joseph McGlasson and first built in 1962.

[1][5][8] The Columbia 24 series are all recreational keelboats, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim.

They all have masthead sloop rigs, spooned raked stems, raised transoms, keel-mounted rudders controlled by a tiller and fixed fin keels.

[5] A Columbia 24 named Tola sailed by Mike Riley completed a circumnavigation, with various crew members.

He met his future wife, Karen, in Papua New Guinea, they married en route and their son, named Falcon, was born on Malta.
