The Triton 22 is an American sailboat, that was designed by Gary Mull and first built in 1985. The design is out of production.[1][2][3]

The boat was built for a short time by Pearson Yachts, using the molds for the US Yachts US 22, from which it was derived. The Triton 22 shares the same specifications as the US 22.[1][4]
