Maxi 87
5 / 22 - score 59%
The Maxi 87 is a 28.54ft masthead sloop designed by Pelle Petterson and built in fiberglass by Börjesson Brothers between 1975 and 1982.
449 units have been built.
The Maxi 87 is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has a low 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.
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.
