Balboa 21
5 / 10 - score 34%
The Balboa 21 is a 21.0ft fractional sloop designed by Peter Barrett and built in fiberglass by Coastal Recreation Inc. since 1969.
The Balboa 21 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.
Despite its low score, this boat is ranked in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
