Broker's Comments

The Albin Vega 27 has a reputation for rugged, performance sailing. The long keel and and classical construction lead to a seaworthy cruiser / racer, capable of circumnavigation and shorter coastal passages, equally.

This is an opportunity to buy a sort after boat, with an active owners association, it is a popular, fast, cruising yacht. With a comprehensive sail wardrobe (8 sails), re-engined in 2004. Just with some tidying of the cockpit locker lids needed, this boat looks ready for seasons of cruising and club racing ahead. If you would like to know more, or arrange a personal viewing, then please do contact our office and we would be pleased to help.
