Antrim 27
Description
The Antrim 27, designed by Jim Antrim in the mid‑1990s, is a 27‑foot high‑performance trailerable sportboat featuring a fractional sloop rig and a lifting bulb keel. Weighing just over 2,100 lb and carrying around 370 sq ft of upwind sail, it delivers exhilarating planing performance with small‑boat simplicity — one of the most highly regarded lightweight racers of its size.
