The Atlantic 44 is a Greek sailboat that was designed by Daniel Andrieu as a cruiser-racer and first built in 1990.[1][2][3][4][5]

The Atlantic 44 is a development of the Sun Magic 44, a boat that was built from 1987 to 1993 by Jeanneau in France. The design was licensed for construction by Olympic Marine in Greece.[1][2][6][7]

Production[edit]

The design was built by Olympic Marine in Greece, starting in 1990, but it is now out of production.[1][2][8][9]

Design[edit]

The Atlantic 44 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig. The hull has a raked stem, a reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel tiller and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 22,050 lb (10,002 kg) and carries 8,155 lb (3,699 kg) of ballast.[1][2]

The boat has a draft of 6.96 ft (2.12 m) with the standard keel and a hull speed of 7.9 kn (14.6 km/h).[1][2]
