The Discovery 79 grampian is a 26.0ft masthead sloop designed by Alex McGruer and built in fiberglass by Grampian Marine between 1975 and 1977.

The Discovery 79 grampian is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a good righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser.
