The Jaguar 28 is an enduring staple of the British coastal cruising scene, representing a pivotal era when American design logic met Northern European build requirements. Manufactured by Jaguar Yachts in Canvey Island, Essex, the model is a direct evolution of the Jaguar 27, which was itself a licensed and modified version of the ubiquitous Frank Butler-designed Catalina 27. Introduced in the late 1970s and produced into the 1980s, the Jaguar 28 served as a "Mk II" or refined version of its predecessor, offering a slightly modernized transom, improved interior moldings, and a deck layout more suited to the rigors of the North Sea and the English Channel. While it shares the "family DNA" of the lighter, Californian-style Catalinas, the Jaguar version was built with a heavier layup to handle the choppy, short-period waves characteristic of UK coastal waters.
