Porpoise garden
7 / 29 - score 51%
The Porpoise garden is a 45.75ft masthead ketch designed by William Garden and built in wood or fiberglass since 1971.
The Porpoise garden is a very heavy sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is excellent. There is an excellent 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.
