Fisherman 27 Brochure
The Fisherman was designed as a motor-sailer, available with a full sloop rig, or a much smaller mizzen rig.
The design has significantly more space below than the Atalanta. With two cabins and over 6ft headroom the Fisherman makes for comfortable family cruising.
See the Atalanta 26 design page for articles about construction.
