The
RL 28
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.
