The Comet 860 is a 28.0ft masthead sloop designed by Groupe Finot and built in fiberglass by Comar Yachts between 1984 and 1987.
78 units have been built.
The Comet 860 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a high performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a fast cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
