About the ENDEAVOUR 27 (AUS)
The Endeavour 27 is a rare Australian-built coastal cruiser designed by an unknown designer and constructed by Endeavour Yachts (AUS) between 1985 and 1993. With only 16 hulls built, this small production run creates a unique market position for this 27.0 ft masthead sloop.
- Best for:
- This boat suits budget-conscious coastal cruisers or weekend sailors seeking a manageable, narrow-beam vessel that is easy to trailer and dock. Its limited production makes it a niche choice for those who prefer smaller, less common designs over mass-produced competitors.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a fin keel and max draft of 4.33 ft, the Endeavour 27 is primarily suited for coastal cruising rather than serious bluewater passagemaking, given its light displacement and narrow beam.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the O'Day 27 and Catalina 27, which share similar LOA and era, though the Endeavour's 9.0 ft beam is narrower than many contemporaries. It also compares to the Hunter 27, offering a similar masthead sloop configuration for coastal cruising.
