The Montego 20 is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Johannes "Jopie" Helsen as a pocket cruiser and first built in 1976.
It has a fractional sloop rig with a deck-stepped mast, a raked stem, a plumb transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a shoal draft keel.
[1][3] The boat has a draft of 2.00 ft (0.61 m) with the standard shoal-draft keel, allowing operation in shallow water or ground transportation on a trailer.
Ventilation includes four opening ports in addition to a forward hatch and companionway hatch— great for summer climates.
Her average PHRF of 282 seems a bit high, particularly against other similarly shallow fixed-keelers with more top hamper (above-the-water superstructure) like the Buccaneer 200 ....
