Reliance 44
10 / 22 - score 55%
The Reliance 44 is a 44.33ft masthead ketch designed by Pierre Meunier and built in fiberglass since 1972.
46 units have been built.
The Reliance 44 is a very heavy sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is good. There is an excellent water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
