CS 27

The CS 27 is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by Raymond Wall and first built in 1975. The design is out of production.

The boat was built by CS Yachts in Canada, with 480 examples completed between 1975 and 1983, when production ended.

The CS 27 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass. It has a masthead sloop rig, a transom-hung rudder and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 6,100 lb (2,767 kg) and carries 2,400 lb (1,089 kg) of ballast.

The boat has a draft of 5.17 ft (1.58 m) with the standard iron-ballasted keel and 3.92 ft (1.19 m) with the optional longer shoal draft lead-ballasted keel. About 90 were built with the shoal draft keel.

The boat was initially fitted with a Japanese Yanmar YSE diesel engine and later a Yanmar 1GM model.

In 1977 an increased area rudder with 2 in (5.1 cm) more added to the leading edge for better helm balance was introduced and this new rudder design could be retrofitted to older boats. In 1980 the mast was changed from a Proctor to an Isomat section along with small interior improvements.

The boat has a PHRF racing average handicap of 207 with a high of 204 and low of 216. It has a hull speed of 6.55 kn (12.13 km/h).

Notable examples include the CS 27 Sea Weasel which achieved a second place in West Vancouver Yacht Club's 2014 Southern Straits Classic.
