The Hughes-Columbia 27 is a Canadian sailboat that was designed by Alan Payne as a cruiser and first built in 1978. [1] [2] [3]

The Hughes-Columbia 27 is a development of the 1976, Payne-designed Columbia 8.3. [1] [2]

Production

The design was built by Hughes Boat Works in Canada, from 1978 until 1980, but it is now out of production. [1] [2] [4] [5]

Design

The Hughes-Columbia 27 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, an internally mounted spade-type rudder and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 7,300 lb (3,311 kg) and carries 3,100 lb (1,406 kg) of iron ballast. [1] [2]

The boat has a draft of 4.00 ft (1.22 m) with the standard keel. [1] [2]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar 2QM diesel engine for docking and manoeuvring. The fuel tank holds 22 U.S. gallons (83 L; 18 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 90 U.S. gallons (340 L; 75 imp gal). [1] [2]

The design has a hull speed of 6.18 kn (11.45 km/h). [2]
