Cape 28
The Cape 28 is a 28.0ft masthead sloop designed by Bob Klusendick and built in wood cold molded or plywood with chine by Nebe Boatworks (South Africa) since 1981.
7 units have been built.
The Cape 28 is a heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
