[1][2][3] The Hermann 22 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with extensive wood trim, including wooden cockpit coamings.
It has a masthead sloop rig, a slightly raked stem, an angled transom, a short transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed stub long fin keel with a centerboard.
[2] In a 2010 review Steve Henkel wrote, "here is a masthead sloop with a hull almost as wide (9 1/2 feet) and as heavy as a typical Cape God Catboat.
And with her shallow draft and smooth bottom, we can see her skipper dropping off the crowd and then putt-putting up to some tranquil gunkhole to anchor for the night.
Worst features: Her rudder looks more like one sized for a powerboat than a sailboat, and maybe that's how she'd end up being used most of the time, since a sail area of only 270 square feet isn't going to move her wide, heavy hull very fast, at least in light air...."[2] Related development
