The Cutlass 27, designed by the prolific naval architect Alan F. Hill and manufactured by Marine Construction Ltd. (Marcon) in Southampton, stands as a quintessential example of the "long-keel" era of British fiberglass yacht production. Introduced in 1967, shortly after the debut of the Trident 24, the Cutlass 27 was conceived as a more serious offshore contender, prioritizing sea-kindliness and windward performance over the burgeoning trend for high-volume interiors. With a remarkably narrow beam of just 7'7" and a deep-draft long keel, the vessel shares more DNA with traditional Scandinavian folkboats or the Twister 28 than with the beamier cruisers that would come to define the 1970s. This design choice resulted in a yacht that is exceptionally pretty to the eye, with a low profile and classic proportions, but one that demands a specific type of owner—one who values the journey and the "feel" of the helm more than dockside living space.
