The DC‐14 Phantom is a recreational sailboat, with its hulls built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig with a rotating mast. The hulls have raked stems, vertical transoms, dual transom-hung, kick-up rudders controlled by a tiller and retractable daggerboards. The boat displaces and has a central trampoline, stretched over a frame that mounts the hulls.
