Twister 28

In 1963, Kim Holman designed and had (at Upham's in Brixham) the first Twister commissioned for himself and his brother Jack to race. That season they cleaned up and subsequently over 200 have been built since, originally all timber and more recently composite. This Twister Mk II, with GRP hull and topsides, was built to last, designed to win races and is an excellent sea boat. Designed to get the best out of the racing rules then current, the Twister is a little boat with a big reputation for sailing extraordinarily well. As a result these vessels are prized even now. If you're looking for a strong, speedy 28 footer, that will not only keep you safe in all sorts of sea states but will also be easy to sail & easy on the eye too, then look no further. This example has been extremely well cared for and has had a new boom and new engine in the present ownership. She has a comprehensive sail wardrobe, excellent varnish work and a spotless bilge!! Although snug by modern standards, the accommodation is well designed. It has berths for 5 and a galley with a single sink & gimballed cooker. The nav table, which can be slid into a storage space over the quarter berth, has all the instruments needed for passage in easy reach. This GRP Twister has a very practical, sturdy and capable feel to it. I believe that she makes for a great all-rounder, for quick races, long, safe passages and equally good for beginners or seasoned sailors alike. These boat details are subject to contract.
