Samphire 23
7 / 21 - score 52%
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.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
