6 / 40 - score 71%
The Buccaneer 285 is a 26.67ft masthead sloop built in fiberglass by Bayliner (Buccaneer/US Yachts) since 1976.
The Buccaneer 285 is a moderate weight 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 coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a very short water supply range.
This boat has a reasonable score and ranks in the top quarter. It is a good choice.
