The Newport 27 S is a foundational representative of the 1970s fiberglass racer-cruiser movement, bridging the gap between high-performance regatta contenders and family-oriented coastal cruisers. Designed by the prestigious Canadian firm C&C Design, the Newport 27 S was primarily brought to market by Capital Yachts—a company inextricably linked to the Newport Boats and Lockley Newport lineage through shared California origins and personnel. This model capitalized on the "performance-cruiser" ethos of the era, offering a hull that was light enough to be competitive in PHRF (Performance Handicap Racing Fleet) fleets while maintaining the interior volume required for overnighting. The "S" designation typically refers to the sloop configuration, which became the standard for the line as it evolved through various iterations into the Newport 28 and subsequent cruiser-racer adaptations.
