Bes 12 ton
6 / 12 - score 50%
The Bes 12 ton is a 31.5ft fractional sloop designed by Paul Elvstrøm and built in fiberglass by Gouteron (Chantier) (FRA) since 1972.
The Bes 12 ton is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
