The Sadler 290 represents a significant departure from the traditional skeg-hung rudder and narrow-beam philosophy of earlier Sadler designs. Launched in the early 2000s and designed by Stephen Jones, the 290 was intended to modernize the brand’s reputation for rugged, sea-kindly cruisers. While its predecessor, the Sadler 29, was a legendary David Sadler design known for its "unsinkable" twin-skin construction, the 290 utilized a more modern build process under Sadler Yachts (and later Northshore Yachts) to provide significantly more interior volume and enhanced sailing performance, particularly in its twin-keel configuration.
