The Maxi 84 is a 28.02ft masthead sloop designed by Pelle Petterson and built in fiberglass by Börjesson Brothers between 1977 and 1983.
1350 units have been built.
The Maxi 84 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
