Discover the Classic Elegance of the 1978 Islander 28-Foot Sailboat!
Experience the charm and performance of the 1978 Islander 28-foot sailboat, a true masterpiece by Robert H. Perry, first launched in July 1975 by Islander Yachts in Costa Mesa, California. Over a decade, the company produced around 430 of these stunning vessels, known for their exceptional design and sailing prowess.
Aesthetically Pleasing Design
The Islander 28 is an eye-catcher with its raked bow, elegant sheer, and reverse transom. The seamless blend of the cabin's lines with the hull creates a harmonious and attractive profile that stands out on the water.
Exceptional Sailing Performance
With a 5-foot-6-inch draft and 3,300 pounds of ballast, this sailboat offers superior sailing capabilities. It tracks well, responds swiftly to the helm, and ensures a smooth and enjoyable sailing experience. The standard model with a 5-foot draft and the 4-foot shoal-draft keel option both deliver excellent handling, making the Islander 28 versatile for various sailing conditions.
Robust and Stable Hull
The hull's design, influenced by the International Offshore Rule, features a 10-foot beam, providing stability and speed even in a breeze. This broad configuration ensures the boat sails efficiently in both light and heavy winds.
Quality Rigging and Deck Layout
The masthead-rigged Islander 28 comes with a deck-stepped, single-spreader mast, supported by a steel compression post and secured shroud chainplates. The mid-boom mainsheet leads to a traveler on the cabin top, ensuring optimal sail control. Equipped with Lewmar self-tailing primaries, spinnaker winches, and additional cabin top winches, this sailboat is ready for action.
Innovative Interior
The I-28 was the first Islander model to feature a modular interior, with teak components crafted and installed for a luxurious finish. The L-shaped galley is equipped with an icebox, stove top, and sink. The I-28 provides ample storage and comfortable living spaces, including a head with a stainless-steel basin, a bulkhead-mounted folding saloon table, and a spacious V-berth.
Affordable Coastal Cruiser
This 1978 Islander 28-foot sailboat offers remarkable value for a vessel of its class. Its combination of comfort, performance, and timeless design makes it a standout choice among similar 28-footers.
