Broker's Comments

A very nice example of this cruiser-racer built by Albin Marin in Sweden.
This was one of the last Albin Ballad models built. She is number 1440 and it is understood around 1500 were built during the 1970's. Many have made long offshore passages, including at least one circumnavigation.
Just 2 owners from new and bought by the current owner in 1992.
The current owner is retiring from sailing so it is time to find her a new home.
