The 1987 J/28 is a classic 28-foot racing and cruising sailboat built on a fiberglass hull with a 10-foot beam. Powered by an 18-horsepower Yanmar diesel engine, she delivers the performance and handling that made the J/28 a respected club racer while remaining accessible for casual cruising.
The interior is thoughtfully arranged for a boat of this size, with a single cabin and head serving as comfortable overnight accommodations. The design balances performance requirements with livable cruising space, making the boat suitable for both day sailing and weekend getaways.
Recent maintenance completed in 2024 includes new bottom paint, a replaced cutlass bearing, and new anodes, addressing key systems that benefit from regular attention in a boat of this age.
