Owner Experience Review

From the available broker materials, the GIANT 28byGIANTis set up for a crewed Mediterranean program and is presented as equally suited to private family cruising and refined entertaining. Five ensuite guest cabins sleep up to 10, with crew accommodation for about six, and the layout reads as charter‑capable. Photos and descriptions emphasize spacious social areas and a flybridge, with teak decks and warm wood finishes that support an easy guest flow.

Underway, listings describe a wooden, semi‑displacement cruiser that is most comfortable at semi‑displacement speeds, with broker‑published figures of roughly 20 knots cruising, about 24 knots maximum, and an approximate 300‑nm range. A 2022–2023 comprehensive refit is reported to have upgraded machinery, systems, and navigation, aimed at improving reliability and guest comfort, but there are no independent owner reports to validate rough‑water behavior or helm feedback in public forums. Maintenance expectations reflect the wooden hull and superstructure—typically higher scheduled upkeep and periodic refit planning—while the twin MAN D2842 LE404 (2 × 1,500 hp) package will follow MAN diesel service intervals, so parts and authorized support should be confirmed for your cruising region.

Pros and Cons

• Charter‑capable five‑ensuite‑cabin layout supports private family cruising and refined entertaining.
• Comfortable semi‑displacement cruising with broker‑published ~20‑knot cruise.
• Reported 2022–2023 comprehensive refit upgrading machinery, systems, and navigation.
• Wooden hull and superstructure demand higher scheduled maintenance and periodic refit planning than composite or steel.
• Limited independent owner reports leave gaps on rough‑water handling and long‑term reliability.
• Broker‑listed ~300‑nm range can constrain longer passages without frequent fuel stops.
