The Macwester 28 is a 28.25ft masthead sloop designed by CSJ Roy and built in fiberglass by Macwester Marine Co. Ltd. (UK) since 1967.
The Macwester 28 is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a good righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
