Production

Design

The Lancer 29 PS is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop, a sharply raked stem, a plumb transom and a fixed long keel. It displaces 6,800 lb (3,084 kg). [1] [3]

The boat has a draft of 5.25 ft (1.60 m) with the standard keel and is normally fitted with an outboard motor for cruising, docking and maneuvering. [1] [3]

The design has a hull speed of 6.43 kn (11.91 km/h). [3]

Operational history

In a review Bruce McArthur wrote, "like the other Lancer PS models, these boats were more of a hybrid power-sailboat than a sailing auxiliary or motorsailer and can accept large outboard motors. The Lancer 29 PS was not built in great numbers." [1] [3]
