Samphire 23
6 / 24 - score 47%
The Samphire 23 is a 22.75ft masthead sloop designed by David M. Cannell and built in fiberglass by North Sea Craft (Samphire) since 1977.
12 units have been built.
The Samphire 23 is a very heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser.
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.
