FIRST 27
WHY THE FIRST 27 ? 
MODERN & FAST
Light vacuum-infused hull, modern design and deep low-centre-of-gravity keel allow us to make these sailboats significantly faster, which defines the boat’s character – fast, stable and safe planing sailing experience.
SAFE
Very high stability, unsinkable hull due to three insubmersability chambers, crash-box, inboard engine and balanced twin rudders for complete control are all resulting in the fact that safety is one of her strongest points.
FACILE
Carefully thought-out cockpit ergonomy, minimised and simplified deck controls, double winches and perfectly balanced steering system assure easy handling in single-handed, double-handed or fully-crewed setup.
RELIABLE
Reliable 15 HP inboard engine coupled with simple linear shaft drive and foldable propeller guarantees high cruising speeds, ease of use and low maintenance.
TRAILABLE
Despite the fixed keel, First 27 is still fully trailable boat offering you a new level of freedom. You can easily discover distant shores without long sea deliveries, save on marina costs and out of season, store your boat in your backyard.
SAILING EXPERIENCE
The main promise and differentiation of First 27 are her performance and unique sailing experience. Again and again, she will surprise you by planing in as little as 12 k T of wind. A stable hull is sourcing its stability from the wide and flat on the waterline and the lead T-bulb keel. Increased bow volume, accompanied with a balanced twin-rudder steering system, keeps you in complete control, no matter if you are sailing upwind or safely planing downwind. Easy boat handling comes from carefully thought-out boat design and cockpit ergonomics, whether sailing solo, double-handed or fully crewed. Planing sensation and excitement will become your afternoon sailing routine.
