Short description: Sailboat built between 1938 and 1950

The Rhodes 27 is a sailboat designed by Philip Rhodes and manufactured by different boat builders in United States and Canada in the period 1938–1950.[1] Approximately 40 boats were eventually built. Many of these wooden boats have been partially or fully restored.

The Rhodes 27 is 39 feet 2 inches long, 27 feet on the waterline with a narrow 9’8” beam. All were designed as sloops, and could sleep four, with provision for up to two additional pipe berths in the main cabin.
