1260 / 7320 - score 32%
The Montgomery 23 is a 23.0ft masthead sloop designed by Lyle Hess and built in fiberglass by Montgomery Marine Products since 1979.
20 units have been built.
The Montgomery 23 is a light 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.
Despite its low score, this boat is ranked in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoffs for this request.
