What the F-27 lacks in amenities and comfort it makes up for in cruising range. It can be trailered, this boat can get to all sorts of places that would otherwise be out of reach. In a speedster like this you can potentially travel over 100 miles during a long days sail. If you want to both cruise and race, you should give the F27 a look. Many people cruise these boats, and there is a very active one-design class.
