Boat is located in Branford, Connecticut.
Well maintained, clean, Robert Perry designed Islander 28.
Lots of updates - see below.
Located in Branford, CT.
Shes a super comfortable, well balanced cruiser/racer.
She single hands well and is comfy for 2 adults for cruising.
If you have 2 more she can handle it as well for those shorter overnight/weekend trips.
This boat is SO easy to single hand, with an auto helm that tacks for you while you do the crew work.
Shes easy to maintain and sails like a dream.
Anchor out for some sunning and take a swim off the transom with dinner to follow after a sweet day of sailing.
This anchor has held 4 boats rafted up much bigger than Rebecca without a problem.
Shes a joy to own and easy to maintain.
I did not replace the canvas as not everyone likes bright yellow - but the current canvas still has life in it so take your time to decide what color you want next!
Im happy to guide you on how to ready her for launch in mid-June.
Rebecca has a Yanmar diesel Cruising speed: 5.8, Max speed, 6.2.
Very comfortable below for 2 adults (and 2 children or larger crew for day sailing.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Diesel power was available as an option.
Shoal draft: 4.0’.
A similar ‘Bahama’ model was introduced in 1981 but sold poorly. Not long after, the standard model was then brought back into production until 1985. With more than 400 sold, this was among the brands most successful models.
Rated highly on the used sailboat market. Robert Perry has stated that this is one of his favorite designs.
