The Sterling 28 represents a pivotal moment in British yachting history, marking the first successful design by the legendary naval architect Kim Holman. Commissioned in the late 1950s and primarily constructed by J.W. & A. Upham in Brixham, the Sterling 28 was conceived as a robust, seaworthy cruiser capable of handling the challenging conditions of the English Channel while maintaining a grace of line that became Holman’s trademark. Built to high standards with mahogany or teak planking on steamed oak frames, the model established Holman's reputation for creating "pretty" boats that could punch well above their weight in heavy weather.
