Ontario 28 sailboat website

Welcome to a
website about the
ONTARIO 28 & 32

Both the Ontario 28 and Ontario 32 have earned reputations for being extremely well built boats which are capable of extended cruising. The Ontario 32 was designed by C&C and has proven to be very popular with bluewater sailors and cruisers heading down to the Caribbean. The Ontario 28 followed in the footsteps of the Ontario 32. It also traces its origins to the C&C design team, resulting in a cruising boat with good performance and sailing characteristics.
