The Ontario 28 is a 28.58ft masthead sloop designed by Henry Adriaanse and built in fiberglass by Ontario Yachts between 1978 and 1985.
45 units have been built.
The Ontario 28 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a short water supply range.
