Meet the Hartley Boats Zenith Range | Zen, Zenith & Zenith II

What happens when a brutal capsize and cracked ribs in an Osprey spark an idea for a completely new kind of racing dinghy? Over a year since their launch—and with well over 100 boats already out on the water - the Phil Morrison-designed Zenith range has redefined modern dinghy sailing. In this video, we take a look at the three boats in the Zenith family - the Zen, the Zenith, and the Zenith II, each designed to let you race hard in big winds without the physical punishment. Featuring our game-changing ballasted centreboard system, deep comfortable cockpits, high booms, and custom in-house square-top sails, there is now a Zenith for every helm weight and crew setup. The Range at a Glance: The Zen (Single-hander | 55kg–90kg helms): Shorter, lighter hull with a lighter ballasted centreboard and a choice of two square-top sail sizes. The Zenith (Single-hander | 70kg - 110kg helms): The boat that started it all. Unmatched stability and pace in heavy airs. The Zenith II (Double-hander | Non-Trapeze | Optimal sailing weight: 110kg - 200kg): Sleek 85kg carbon/epoxy hull, Seldén carbon rig, 37kg ballasted centreboard, high boom, deep seating cockpit (no kneeling downwind!), and easy spinnaker chute system.
