Caliber 28
7 / 38 - score 56%
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 an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
