Dragonfly buchanan
6 / 25 - score 55%
The Dragonfly buchanan is a 18.33ft masthead sloop designed by Alan Buchanan and built in plywood since 1969.
The Dragonfly buchanan is a light sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat.
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.
