Designed by Wendell H. Calkins and built by W. D. Schock Corp., this compact 22-footer represents early fiberglass construction from 1960, with only 26 hulls produced during its limited production run. The boat's fractional sloop rig and keel/centerboard configuration create an interesting hybrid design that offers both shallow-water versatility and sailing performance. With a displacement of 2,100 pounds and 715 pounds of ballast, the Schock 22 strikes a balance between portability and stability. The generous beam of 7.50 feet provides good initial stability and interior volume for a boat this size, while the 4.17-foot draft allows access to shoal waters when the centerboard is raised. The 245 square feet of sail area delivers respectable performance with a SA/Displacement ratio of 23.96, indicating lively sailing characteristics. The comfort ratio of 10.75 suggests this is primarily a daysailer rather than a cruising boat, while the capsize screening formula of 2.35 indicates reasonable stability for protected waters. Best suited for coastal daysailing, club racing, and weekend adventures, the Schock 22 offers an accessible entry point into keelboat sailing with the added versatility of centerboard shallow-water capability.
