Broker's Comments

The Contessa 28, which was designed by Doug Peterson, is the smaller sister to the Contessa 34. She is a very seaworthy boat with good windward performance. She has a deep cockpit with high sides, which is safe and comfortable.
Below she has 6 berths. There are 2 in the forward cabin with the heads to starboard and storage opposite. The main saloon has 1 settee berths that converts to a double and another one opposite with a quarter berth to starboard. The galley is on the port side.
This is a comfortable cruiser which will not embarrass herself around the club race course. She's priced competitively.
