Two main halyards, two foresail halyards, one swiveling spinnaker halyard, one halyard for inner forestay which can be used from cockpit or at mast. Locking clutches. One spinnaker pole with associated hardware. Six winches, two Andersen self-tailing jib sheet winches in cockpit, two Lewmars at mast and two on cabin top. Hardtop fibreglass dodger with stainless steel grab rails built into sides. Engine 14 hp Volvo Penta MD7A diesel motor capable of hull speed (8 knots) at max revs and at 5-5.5 knots at cruise. In addition there is a Y fitting on the engine coolant intake with a filter so that the engine pump can be used as an emergency bilge pump by turning two sea cocks. Engine room insulated using fire proof reflective insulation for minimal heat and sound transfer for emergency propulsion. (Engine Rebuilt 2002-Last Overhaul 2009) Standing Rigging • ss ¼” backstay, forestay, and cap shrouds with norseman terminal ends. • ss ¼” lower shrouds with swaged ends. • ss ¼” inner forestay mounted to a new bulkhead fiber glassed in large main chain locker. • Running backstays made of 3/8” warp speed spectra dyneema with large 4:1 tackle that can go on the winches. • ss ¼” standing backs so inner forestay can be used in heavy weather to short tack without removing running backs each time. • Lifeline made of 3/16 ss standing rigging. Modifications/Refitting in 2000 & 2009: 2000: Notable: Added an extra bulkhead up forward for the inner forestay, overhaul of all the standing and running rigging. An internal aluminum brace on both sides of the mast support beam were added to prevent delamination of brace. New external chain plates were installed. (cont.)

Equipment:

(cont. from 'description) the rudder was removed and rebuilt with new gudgeons and bushing being made where needed. The rudder was slightly modified to facilitate easier removal (in the water) in foreign ports if it sustained damage. All cockpit seats were sealed and given positive latches to prevent leakage in the event of capsize. The lazarette has been isolated from the rest of the boat for the same reason. Running and standing backs and inner forestay allow the failure of any one wire without loss of parts and are used as an essential viewing platform in coral strewn waters. 2009: Notable: Fiberglass repairs and pain on deck, new waterline and bottom paint, refit lazarette covers, replaced hardware, engine overhauled, new gear box, cockpit flooring replaced, foredeck Lewmar hatch, swim deck platform added….. Exceptional Features of the Alberg Design Stable full keel with moderate displacement and a cut away forefoot allow for an excellent sea-going boat with a kindly motion. Excellent upwind performance in terms of comfort and speed; although newer fin keels will point higher, she moves well with less pounding on the boat and crew. Her best run upwind was a run of 145 nm which is an average of 8 knots. Downwind her best run was 154 nm with twin headsails her movement is of a smooth waltz. She is a narrow boat which penetrates waves well and although narrow, she is not tender. She moves easily despite her moderate displacement due to her fine lines and reasonable sailplan. The heavy lay up of this vintage boat is over an inch thick in the bow and stern and has taken a severe grounding with a reef in Hawaii years ago with no more than scratches to show for it. A stainless steel strip runs down the bow to the keel which further protects the impact area. A deep bilge with lots of storage for chain and batteries further stabilizes the boat. A lack of a quarter birth allows for huge cockpit lockers to store additional cans of diesel, oil and stove fuel in one and water and sails in the other along with miscellaneous items such as tenders and dive equipment. Safety Equipment One built-in hand-operated bilge pump in cockpit, one large electric (with automatic float switch) and the aforementioned engine driven pump. Allows the movement of several thousand gallons per hour. One drogues 4’ diameter made of webbing. Two large cleats on stern for positive attachment of drogues. Flares, flare gun, and all necessary safety devices to comply with Costa Rican requirements. Man overboard pole with quick release and life ring with 100’ of floating line as well as a heaving line. Misc. Includes custom fabricated haul-out cradle Fully documented/registered in Costa Rica,(added value of ~$5,000) PLEASE CONTACT US FOR MORE INFORMATION AND PHOTOS
