Ct 54
3 / 6 - score 57%
The Ct 54 is a 54.0ft staysail ketch designed by Robert Perry and built in fiberglass by Ta Chiao (TAIWAN) between 1975 and 1981.
100 units have been built.
The Ct 54 is a heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is not stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is excellent. There is an excellent water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
