The Alberg 29, designed by famous naval architect Carl Alberg and built in 1980, is a robust, ocean-capable sailboat ideal for blue-water cruising. Known for its full keel and solid performance in both light and heavy winds, this sailboat offers exceptional tracking and comfort at sea. The Alberg 29’s recently replaced Yanmar 3YM20 diesel engine, with only 900 hours of use, ensures dependable propulsion, while upgrades such as a hydraulic autopilot, lithium batteries, solar panels, and a wind generator provide energy independence. The new refrigerator and battery charger further enhance onboard convenience, making this vessel not only reliable but also self-sufficient for long voyages.
Distinct from earlier Alberg designs, the Alberg 29 features a more modern hull with increased stiffness due to firmer bilges, a wider beam, and a deeper draft, which enhances its stability and performance. The vessel’s higher aspect masthead rig and larger foretriangle improve windward performance, minimizing weather helm and optimizing balance. The boat’s craftsmanship is evident in its quality, with a well-designed galley for safe cooking in rough seas and a quarter berth navigation table, a first for Alberg production boats. This combination of speed, performance, and comfort makes the Alberg 29 a standout choice for sailors who value seaworthiness and competitive sailing.
