The Malbec 290 is a 29.82ft fractional sloop designed by Pablo Mastracchio and built in fiberglass by Astillero Zimmermann (ARG) since 2006.
The Malbec 290 is a light sailboat which is a high performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a racing boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
