Merit 23 sprint cb
7 / 17 - score 52%
The Merit 23 sprint cb is a 23.0ft masthead sloop designed by Paul Yates and built in fiberglass by Merit Marine Inc. since 1984.
The Merit 23 sprint cb is a light sailboat which is a very high performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
