2025 2025 Dragonfly 28

Step aboard and you’ll notice how much thought has gone into real-world sailing days. The cockpit feels secure yet open, with plenty of room to move when you’re tacking or lounging at anchor. Light, responsive steering makes it easy to thread your way through crowded harbors, and once the amas are folded, the trimaran’s footprint shrinks dramatically for slips, trailers, or tight marina berths. Inside, the bright, airy cabin offers just enough creature comforts for weekends away without feeling fussy or delicate. Under sail, the 28 rewards a light touch on the sheets, accelerating quickly in a puff and settling into an easy, predictable groove that keeps new crew relaxed and experienced sailors grinning.

In these waters, conditions can swing from glassy mornings to choppy afternoon breezes, and the Dragonfly 28 is built for that variety. Its trimaran platform delivers excellent stability when short-handed, yet it still has the speed to outrun incoming squalls or reach the next anchorage before dark. Shallow draft with the board up opens up creeks, sandbars, and quiet coves that deeper boats only admire from afar. When it’s time to haul out for storm season or a weekend road trip, the folding beams and manageable size make trailering straightforward. It’s an ideal match for sailors who want performance sailing without giving up access to skinny-water hideaways.
