I love my 74 T 27 but in my opinion $15K is a little
on the high side for a 1978. Of course a T27 in
really good shape could certainly be worth that much
or more so there is a judgment call here. What I am
saying is that 1978 is fairly old and for that money
You may find a more modern design (technology and
computer designed hulls have come a long way . (I am
an engineer)
As I write this I feel disloyal to my classic but It
is my honest opinion which is what you are asking for.
Perhaps asking this same question outside the T27
world may give you another unbiased opinion.

Hi group,
I'm seriously considering a 1978 T27. It fits my
budget but I've
never sailed one and need your advice. What are its
best point(s)of
sailing, windward ability, roundup, etc? I'll be
sailing on the
Chesapeake Bay and Florida Keys. The Farymann
diesel probably needs
to be replaced, is there a better replacement? The
broker is asking
15,000 for it - it's in really good shape, just the
questionable
engine and some interior varnish is all the T27
needs. I'll get a
marine survey but want to make sure the T27 is worth
the cost.
Thanks all!
