The Maxi 909 is a 29.53ft fractional sloop designed by Pelle Petterson and built in fiberglass by Maxi Yachts (SWE) between 1986 and 1991.
210 units have been built.
The Maxi 909 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.
