On Deck

The Sargo 28 is a robust all-weather boat, ideal for any condition. There are many practical features, such as the thick rubbing band around the boat designed to withstand knocks. The owner can choose between black rails or stainless steel depending on preference, adding a touch of customization to the yacht.

An essential feature is the direct access to the outdrives, a practicality that comes useful in case of any snagging issues. There is increased seating and bigger locker space around the boat, along with a large opening window for ample ventilation. Moving around the boat is easy, noting the side doors that allow easy access to the helm, making it convenient for short-handed sailors.

There is an open pulpit design common in Finnish boats, which allows for easy disembarking onto rocky islands from the prow. This boat features the option of having an extended roof for added protection, versus the option to enclose the area with a canopy.

Interior

The helm station can be tilted to accommodate both sitting and standing positions, making it very flexible. There is a manual sliding roof which is simple, yet durable. The seating arrangements in the saloon can accommodate up to six people, making it a great spot for socializing while cruising. The galley is functional, equipped with a diesel-fired hob and a fridge.

The under-helm cabin can be converted from a single bed to a double bed with ease, a versatile addition. Aft there is a second cabin.  There is ample storage space and a separate toilet and shower area, which embody the practicality and functionality of Finnish design.

Performance

The engine, a Volvo Penta D6-340, has a speed capability of 34 knots and a range of 250 miles. There is an option of upgrading to a D6-440 for even greater speed.

In Summary

Overall, Nick seems to appreciate the Sargo 28 for its practicality, speed, and comfort. He notes that while it may not be a boat for spending weeks on end in, it is a highly capable offshore machine, reflecting the thoughtful design and functionality that went into its creation.
