Yacht description

This fantastic full carbon rocket is a fast sailing boat but easy to manage and a fully experienced racing crew is not needed. It has the purpose of being sailed in full extended racks mode or even in normal position in relax mode.

Thank’s to the seating position on the racks of the crew, it is safe, comfortable and easy to handle. Nevertheless, you will not find another 28’ as fast as this boat or only with complicated mechanisms like canting keel and trapezes. This boat is really well thought of because it can be launched within minutes with a single hoisting point, the sails raised in just a few seconds, and there you go.

The keel can be chosen with 2 different depths but is fixed under the hull with 2 bolts.

The Cayman28 is designed by Mark Mills.

Deck and Cockpit

The all-carbon sportsboat features extendable racks that allow the crew to produce far more righting moment than a conventional hiking position, as well as a more comfortable seating position. In daysailing mode with the racks in it becomes a simple sporty daysailer, with the flat cockpit floor running forward to the stem to produce a more secure foredeck.

The sliding racks are very successful, providing a more comfortable seating position than a conventional cockpit with a very solid feel even with 5 full size crew, leading to the description ‘Gentleman’s Skiff’.  The racks have sockets for carbon stanchions to carry a webbing strap for more comfort when extended or better enclosure when sailing with them retracted.  The appendages are all carbon, with a weed knife in the keel and a lifting rudder blade allowing easy weed-clearance in the Caribbean. 

Three hatches on the floor offer access under the cockpit, revealing a Lombardini 10hp inboard and storage space.

  • Spinlock alloy extension
