Whitby 45
4 / 15 - score 52%
The Whitby 45 is a 45.0ft masthead sloop designed by George Cuthbertson and built in fiberglass by Whitby Boat Works Ltd. (CAN) between 1968 and 1970.
16 units have been built.
The Whitby 45 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very 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 half. It might be a good tradeoff.
