6 / 15 - score 49%

The Wellington 47 is a 46.92ft cutter designed by John G. Alden Inc. and built in fiberglass by Wellington Boats Inc. between 1969 and 1980.

24 units have been built.

The Wellington 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.

Despite its low score, this boat is ranked in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
