The Stag 28 is a distinctive British cruiser designed in 1976 by Peter Milne, a naval architect best known for high-performance dinghies like the Fireball. Commissioned by Salterns Yacht Agency and primarily built at the Emsworth Shipyard, the Stag 28 was conceived as a premium alternative to the mass-produced family cruisers of the era, such as the Westerly Centaur. With an interior designed by Edwin Meayers—who brought experience from the superyacht sector—the vessel was intended to offer "big boat" luxury and headroom within a 28-foot hull. Approximately 50 to 100 units were produced before rising construction costs, which resulted from its high-quality joinery and robust layup, made the model uncompetitive against cheaper French imports in the early 1980s.
