Dolphin 31
2 / 10 - score 51%
The Dolphin 31 is a 31.0ft masthead sloop designed by John Sharp and built in fiberglass since 1977.
55 units have been built.
The Dolphin 31 is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a 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.
