The Lancer 28T Mark V, or Mark 5, is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by W. Shad Turner as a cruiser and first built in 1982.[1] [2] [3]

Design

The Lancer 28T Mark V is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a raked stem, a slightly angled transom, an internally mounted spade-type/ rudder controlled by a wheel or a tiller and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 52000NaN0 and carries 26000NaN0 of ballast.[1] [3]

The boat has a draft of 3feet with the standard keel. The keel is wide and has a dropped cabin floor into it to increase headroom to 6.170NaN0.[1]

The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor, but can be optionally equipped with a Japanese Yanmar inboard diesel engine of 7.50NaN0 for docking and maneuvering.[1] [3]

The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a straight settee in the main cabin, a drop-down dinette table and an aft cabin with two single berths. The galley is located on both sides just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove to port and a sink to starboard. The head is located just aft of the bow storage area and includes a sink. The fresh water tank has a capacity of .[1] [3]

The design has a hull speed of 6.55kn.[3]
