The Hartley TS16 (Trailer Sailer 16 foot) is an Australian trailerable sailing boat that was designed in 1956 by New Zealander Richard Hartley as a day sailer and which later became a one design racer.
The design was based on a traditional New Zealand mullet fishing boat and was the first trailer sailer sailboat design built. Hartley later designed the TS18 and TS21.
