Vagabond 47
6 / 12 - score 51%
The Vagabond 47 is a 46.58ft staysail ketch designed by William Garden and built in fiberglass by Blue Water Yacht Builders Ltd. (TAIWAN) since 1972.
The Vagabond 47 is a heavy sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is not stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is excellent. There is an excellent water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
