The Us 27 is a 27.0ft masthead sloop designed by Douglas Peterson / Daryl Watson and built in fiberglass by Bayliner (Buccaneer/US Yachts) since 1983.
The Us 27 is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a very short water supply range.
