Whistler 48
12 / 48 - score 57%
The Whistler 48 is a 47.67ft cutter designed by C. W. Paine and built in fiberglass by Able Marine (USA) since 1982.
The Whistler 48 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
