    The DS 22 was originally marketed as the Vision 660 and built in Winnipeg. Also noteworthy is that this boat was designed by Bruce Kirby, who gained fame by drawing the lines of the Laser dinghy. The DS 22 is good looking boat with a swing keel and sensible cabin layout. Some of these boat were built with a main hatch which lifted to provide over 6 feet (1.9m) of headroom in the cabin.
