NEW LISTING!
The Alerion Express 28 has consistently been recognized as one of the prettiest boats on the water. With it's traditional look topside - where it shows, and the hull a modern design below the waterline, the Alerion Express 28 offers the best of both worlds: classic graceful lines and great performance, along with the pride and admiration they bring.
A maximized cockpit and cabin makes the Alerion Express 28 the perfect overnighter for a couple - including weekend adventures or just a spur of the moment evening or after-work sail. When the occaision arises to bring along some friends, the cockpit will comfortably fit 4-6, with plenty of room for all. A very manageable sailplan with a self-tacking jib boom makes for easy single-handing. And even the most die-hard racers speak of how beautifully balanced and delightful it is to sail the Alerion Express 28.
This is a very well kept version of a true modern day classic, in a rare late model year boat. Please contact me to set up an appointment to see this beautiful boat.
