Watkins 27p
4 / 8 - score 47%
The Watkins 27p is a 27.0ft masthead sloop designed by Walter Scott and built in fiberglass by Watkins Yachts between 1981 and 1981.
7 units have been built.
The Watkins 27p is a moderate weight sailboat which is under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a short water supply range.
Despite its low score, this boat is ranked in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
