22 / 99 - score 60%
The Caliber 28 is a 27.5ft masthead sloop designed by Michael McCreary and built in fiberglass by Caliber Yachts (USA) since 1981.
The Caliber 28 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a very short water supply range.
This boat has a reasonable score and ranks in the top quarter. It is a good choice.
