Broker Remarks

This Albin-built yacht from 1979, designed by the renowned Peter Norlin, represents a superb blend of classic Scandinavian craftsmanship and modern upgrades. With a solid GRP hull, fin keel, and skeg-hung rudder, she offers a stable and seaworthy platform ideal for coastal cruising or extended passages.
The current owner has invested significantly in 2025 to modernise and upgrade key systems, making this yacht an exceptional turnkey opportunity. Major updates include a brand-new rig from Eurospars, all-new standing and running rigging, and a full suit of new Vectron sails by Saunders Sails. Deck hardware, winches, and rope handling systems have also been comprehensively renewed, offering effortless sail handling and reliability.
Below deck, she comfortably sleeps five across two cabins and a well-appointed saloon. The interior is functional and airy, featuring new LED lighting, a well-equipped galley with a new Nelson Spinflo gas cooker, and an amidships heads compartment.
Navigation and safety systems have also been brought up to date with a suite of new 2025 electronics, including a chartplotter, AIS VHF, Garmin wind instruments, and upgraded lighting. A full 240V shore power system, solar charging, and new batteries provide excellent off-grid capability.
With a reliable Lombardini 18hp diesel engine, upgraded propeller, and thoughtful additions such as a liferaft cradle, sprayhood, and recent gas safety certification, this yacht has been maintained to a very high standard and is ready for her next adventure.
A well-balanced, thoughtfully upgraded yacht with a proven pedigree — ideal for sailors seeking dependable performance with modern comforts.
