The Gloucester 15 is a development of the Chrysler Marine 1972 Mutineer 15 design, with a heavier displacement.
Production
The design was built by Gloucester Yachts in the United States, with 6,000 boats completed starting in 1987, but it is now out of production.

The boat has a draft of 4.08 ft (1.24 m) with the centerboard extended and 8 in (20 cm) with it retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer.
