The RL28 is the 'Maxi' of trailable yachts designed in Queensland by Rob Legg. With its hydraulically operated swing keel and shallow draft it is ideal for cruising shallow waters with numerous sand banks. Although not designed for long trips their rugged construction and comfortable accommodation have allowed them to undertake long voyages.
Internally it has 6 feet of headroom, six berths, a galley with stove, sink, ice box, ample fresh water storage and folding dining table. There are 19 separate storage compartment, shower and toilet.
