Mason 53 kth
3 / 31 - score 57%
The Mason 53 kth is a 53.5ft staysail ketch designed by Al Mason and built in fiberglass since 1982.
The Mason 53 kth is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is not stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising 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.
