The Jaguar 27 stands as a cornerstone of the 1970s fiberglass revolution, representing a successful transatlantic collaboration between the American design sensibilities of Frank Butler (of Catalina Yachts fame) and the British manufacturing efficiency of Russell Marine Ltd. Produced under license from the legendary Catalina 27 hull—one of the most manufactured sailboats in history—the Jaguar 27 was tailored specifically for the European market. While its American counterpart dominated coastal waters in the United States, the Jaguar 27 became a fixture of the British coastline, offering a blend of performance, interior volume, and affordability that few contemporary vessels could match. Between 1973 and 1980, hundreds of these vessels were launched, becoming a bridge for sailors transitioning from dinghies to offshore cruising.
