Gallant 53
3 / 6 - score 45%
The Gallant 53 is a 53.18ft masthead sloop designed by E. G. van de Stadt and built in fiberglass by Tyler Boat Co. Ltd. (UK) between 1966 and 1973.
22 units have been built.
The Gallant 53 is a heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat.
Despite its low score, this boat is ranked in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
