The Yamaha 28 is a 28.0ft masthead sloop designed by Yamaha Design team and built in fiberglass by Yamaha since 1980.
The Yamaha 28 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a good performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a short water supply range.
