Mariah 27
Description
The Mariah 27 is a high-performance Midget Ocean Racing Club (MORC) racer designed by the American firm Graham & Schlageter and built in fiberglass by Mariah Yachts (a limited-production Southern California builder) starting in 1986, with only a small number of hulls produced (exact quantity not documented, but very low due to the boutique nature of the yard and the era's MORC boom). It features a fin keel with spade rudder for responsive handling and excellent upwind agility, a masthead sloop rig optimized for speed in moderate-to-light winds, and a minimalist interior suitable for racing with occasional cruising potential

Sailrite does its best to publish accurate dimensions, but we often find it worthwhile to have our customers measure their boats carefully before we produce kits for them.
