Operational history
In a review Michael McGoldrick wrote, "The Grampian 28 is more contemporary and nicer looking than the other Grampian models... Although it has a fairly high freeboard, it doesn't have the spoon-bow which is characteristic of some other Grampian models. While this 28 footer may not be as plentiful as either the Grampian 26 or 30... This boat has a nice interior layout which includes a quarter berth."
