Lancer 42
12 / 67 - score 48%
The Lancer 42 is a 42.0ft masthead sloop designed by Herb David and built in fiberglass by Lancer Yacht Corp. (USA) between 1980 and 1983.
The Lancer 42 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a good performer. 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 good. There is a good water supply range.
Despite its low score, this boat is ranked in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoffs for this request.
