The Lancer 27 PS is an American sailboat that was designed by Herb David as a motorsailer and cruiser and first built in 1983. The PS designation indicates "Power Sailer".[1] [2] [3]

The design was built by Lancer Yachts in the United States, from 1983 until 1985, but it is now out of production.[1] [3] [4]

Design

The Lancer 27 PS is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a sharply raked stem, a plumb transom wit a fixed swimming platform, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 46000NaN0 and carries 17000NaN0 of ballast.[1] [3]

The boat has a draft of 4.3feet with the standard keel. It can be fitted with an outboard motor of up to 2000NaN0 for cruising, docking and maneuvering.[1] [3]

The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin around a drop-down table and an aft cabin with a transversely-mounted double berth. The galley is located on the starboard side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is L-shaped and is equipped with a stove, icebox and a sink. The head is located opposite the gallery on the port side.[1] [3]

The design has a hull speed of 6.29kn.[3]
