Alberg 35 and Alberg 37- By Tom Zydler
- Updated: July 31, 2002
Ann and Brian Lancaster have morphed their Alberg 35, Cross Town Traffic into a real gem, the likes of which original builder Pearson yachts never envisioned. They have upgraded the rigging, repowered with diesel, added a reefer/freezer and retrofitted a comfortable chart table inside. They’ve even designed and built a dinghy that fits on the coachroof like a comfortable old slipper without impairing the helmsman’s visibility and important in the Marshall Islands where they are right now, halfway through a carefully planned circumnavigation. Although decidedly thirty-something, the boats, first commissioned in 1961, continue to deliver pleasure and adventure to their owners. Chris Ogden just bought Maui, built in the last production year, 1967, and hauled her out to prepare for a cruise to the West Indies and the Western Caribbean. Even on the hard, the long overhangs rise gracefully over the boxy cabin cruisers. A yard worker ground the layers of old bottom paint down to the gelcoat and revealed five small blisters and not bad for this old lady. Inside are a grand V-berth, a cavernous chain locker, a multitude of doored storage niches and a bin for storm sails. The late Carl Alberg designed the 35 as a coastal cruiser. With LOA of 34’9″ she has a short waterline of 24’0″ and moderate beam of 9’8″ good proportions for slipping along in light air. The waterline lengthens when the hull heels, and the boat foots nicely in a breeze. Draft of 5’2″ permits gunkholing in the Bahamas. Displacement of 13,000 pounds, heavy by today’s standards, provides good motion at sea and the ability to carry a modern cruiser’s payload. Added to the aesthetics, many boat buyers like the price on either side of $30,000, depending on year and condition. Fixer-uppers can be found for as little as $10,000. A 35 in top condition offers a solidly constructed hull (more than one inch thick below the waterline) capable of taking a grounding without worry for the encapsulated lead ballast of 5,300 pounds. So configured, of course, there are no keel bolts to corrode. A family will enjoy the boat with her numerous bunks in the two-cabin versions. In the dinette layout the cabin table drops to make a wide bunk. The whole starboard side holds a three-burner oven/stove, an icebox and food lockers. The version with the settees has a galley by the companionway. Both interiors have quarter berths. Several removable panels open for total access to the engine, and floorboards lift to reveal two monel water tanks (60 gallon) and a fuel tank (30 gallon). A deep bilge prevents any water from sloshing into lockers. With an enclosed toilet compartment with a shower sump and large hanging lockers, the boat offers comfortable seagoing quarters. Drawbacks? Older boats will need hose and electrical wire replacement. The bulkhead under the deck-stepped mast needs beefing up as does the bottom edge of this structural piece. For offshore work I would replace the pretty but weak bronze window frames with bolted ports, or install storm window covers. The balsa-cored deck calls for a surveyor’s mallet to locate any delaminations that can be labor intensive to repair. Inside, Pearson Yachts finished the bulkheads with wood-grained formica. Repainting the bulkheads with light solid colors, after first heavily sanding the surface, helps. Add varnish on the standard teak trim and the cabin will look elegant. Carl Alberg never meant the Alberg 35 for extensive ocean cruising. For this he drew a 37-foot yawl. It compares to the 35 as does a thoroughbred to a Shetland pony, both from a good stable. The Alberg 37 raced under the CCA rule and the design has long overhangs and a short full keel ending with a raked rudder to reduce the wetted area. Showing the typical Alberg moderation of basic ratios, a slim, slippery hull only 5’6″ deep with beam of 10’2″ and 26’6″ of LWL is powered by 646 square feet of sail (in the available sloop version). The single-spreader mainmast goes right through the coachroof to rest on a well engineered mast step and perfect for offshore work. Apart from adding 40 square feet of sail, the mizzen can serve as a riding sail at anchor, carry a mizzen staysail or provide the option of a balanced jib-and-jigger sail plan should the fully reefed main be too big for wild conditions. At 37’2″ LOA and a displacement of 16,800 pounds, the Alberg 37 has the feel of an oceangoing yacht with wide side decks leading to the bow. Below, you get the impression of a larger boat due to ambient light and breeze from several ports and two overhead hatches. Teak bulkheads match the teak-and-holly sole with lifting floorboards for access to the tanks (60 gallons of water and 35 of fuel). The deep bilge has the volume for additional tankage, an important feature in these days of mandatory holding tanks. Apart from a large V-berth, the main cabin has two pull-out settees plus a pilot berth. Shelves for electronics bank the chart table, where a cushioned seat folds cleverly to extend a quarter berth. The Whitby Boat Works in Canada built Alberg 37s, sloops and yawls, in Mark I and Mark II versions between 1967 and 1988, a testimony to the longevity of a classic design. According to all reports, the builders produced a strong hull. A 1977 hull, Good News, ended up on a Block Island, Rhode Island, beach in 1991’s Hurricane Bob and suffered only scratches. Since then, her second owner David Huck has cruised in her as far as Cuba and the southern Bahamas and praises her seakindly performance in sloppy Gulf Stream seas. Potential buyers of the 37 should expect to pay between $35,000 and $60,000. They should employ a surveyor to examine the balsa core deck and the bulkheads, some of which have been known to separate from the hull. The Mark II has less wood in the construction, employing instead a molded floor support, molded overhead liner and a fiberglass toerail.

Bluewater Sailboat – Alberg 37Carl Alberg (1900-1986), a Swedish-born boat designer, created the slender Alberg 37 for Kurt Hansen’s Whitby Boat Works in Canada in the middle of the 1960s. The Alberg 37 is the larger sibling of the well-liked Alberg 30 and 35. The Alberg 37, which was first intended as a racer cruiser, is now more well-known as a medium-heavy displacement cruiser with bluewater prowess. She is sturdy, seaworthy, and most importantly, very reasonably priced. This Bluewater sailboat, which was first offered in 1967 and was available as a sloop or a yawl, proved to be popular enough to receive an update to a MkII model, which mainly enhanced the interior design and simplified manufacture. Before the 1987 recession, which decreased consumer demand and resulted in production ceasing in 1988, a total of 248 boats were constructed. Today, the Alberg 37 enjoys a devoted following among owner communities and a few boats have completed a circumnavigation. - LOA: 37′ 2″

At the bilge, the hulls are made of solid fiberglass that is up to an inch thick. Balsa coring was installed amidships on half of the boats, just above the bilge turn, as a precaution to add support when the boat was cradled during the off-season (keeping in mind that the boat was originally designed as a racer/cruiser). Although the fiberglass was resin-rich by today’s standards, the fiberglass work was well done and consistent, and Whitby Boat Works’ hull scantlings were among the heaviest in the business. MkI and MkIIA fiberglass interior pan was added to the MkII model in 1971, changing its structure and speeding up production while enhancing hull stiffness at the expense of hull accessibility. Better internal space utilisation resulted in a larger head and galley, additional storage, and longer berths, all of which improved the interior. The easiest way to identify a MkII model is by the longer port lights in the cabin, the addition of a dodger splash guard, and the replacement of the original teak toe rail with a fibreglass one. The Bluewater Sailboat Alberg 37 is immediately recognizable as a classic 1960s yacht, with strong influences from Scandinavian folkboats. Long overhangs, a low freeboard, and a gentle sheerline are present. A massive raked rudder is suspended from the trailing edge of the cutaway complete keel, which is below the water’s surface. All of this is quite typical for Alberg designs. With slack bilges and an extremely small beam of 10 feet 2 inches, the hull provides little to contribute to stability. As a result of the Alberg 37’s early tenderness, she can extend her waterline when heeled to windward or reaching. The deck had a balsa core and an inside flange to attach it to the hull. The lead ballast is contained inside the keel cavity. This Bluewater Sailboat has demonstrated her durability over time, and Whitby Boat Works had a reputation for producing sturdy boats. For instance, a hull from 1977 called “Good News” that was beached after a hurricane only sustained minor scratches. A single-hander 37 made it through three days of being battered on a reef before escaping by dumping provisions. The story appeared in Canadian Yachting Magazine. Before making repairs, sailed for 2,000 kilometers. Now you can also precisely calculate the expenses related to boat ownership to make smart choices based on your budget and sailing needs. Use this bluewater Sailboat Calculator to explore different options and make the best decision. PerformanceAlthough this Bluewater Sailboat’s narrow beam results in a modest cabin by contemporary standards, numerous cruisers have stayed onboard for extended periods of time and the boat is perfectly usable for bluewater cruising. V-berths are placed forward in the usual configuration, followed by an opposite-facing head and hanging locker. There is an L-shaped sofa to port and a straight sofa across from it in the saloon. There is a tonne of storage space, including many drawers and lockers. The galley, which has a three-burner stove, an oven, and an icebox, is farther aft. To the port, it features a combination of quarter-berth and chart table. A midship galley on a few Mk I boats creates space for twin sea-going quarter beds at the rear. Quick NotesA 40-hp Westerbeke 4-107 was an option, and this is the one to choose (or an equivalent power rating if it has been repowered). The majority of boats were supplied with either the 23-hp Volvo MD2D or the 27-hp MD11C, which are underpowered. Check the rigging, wiring, and plumbing, as you would with any boat this age, and feel the deck for softness, which are sure symptom of water damage to the balsa coring. Owners claim the original wiring was poorly designed and has to be updated or reworked. Another complaint is that the seacocks are of poor quality; if bluewater work is planned, they should be replaced. Owners of MkI models without the interior pan adore this since it allows them to access all areas of the boat for maintenance, particularly the access to the deck fittings. The interior of MkII models has more room and storage, which is a crucial asset in any bluewater boat. Looking for a used sailboat for sale?

Yacht price The Alberg 37 is a proven world cruiser but has enough performance under sail for enjoyable coastal cruising and weekend racing. This is one of the few designs which is equally good as an offshore or coastal cruiser. In addition, they are one of the most beautiful boats on the water. “Marynya” has been both ways across the Atlantic with her first owners. The current owner bought her in the Virgin Islands, sailed her back to the States and then back and forth around Florida a couple of times. There are no known hull or deck problems. She has a Pro-furl jib rig with a reefing sail, full-length battens on the main and mizzen with retractable lazy-jacks on the main, free-flying drifter-reacher and mizzen staysail. The auxiliary is a Westerbeke 4-107 in good running condition. She has a massive anchor cathead with two rollers, fitted with a 35 lb. CQR with 150 ft. of chain and 250 ft. of line plus a 13 lb. Danforth kedge. There is a two-speed manual Simpson Lawrence windless and a 35 lb. Danforth-type storm anchor in a cockpit locker. The plywood inserts in the companionway, lazzarette and cockpit hatches have been replaced with solid teak planking and midship cleats added for spring-lines. She has 10 opening ports (the original aluminum ports have been replaced with bronze) and a big Bomar hatch over the main cabin. She has new deck, cabin trunk and cockpit paint along with extensive interior refinishing. The house battery bank can carry up to 400 amp-hours (200 currently installed) and there is a 100 amp alternator with a three-stage regulator. The icebox has been re-insulated and fitted with 12 volt refrigeration (the machinery has been recently replaced). There is a new three-burner Force-10 propane range with oven. There is a water heater with both electric and engine heat exchanger and a Lectra-San sewage treatment unit. There is a 50 gal. water tank in the bow and an additional 35 gal. tank in the bilge which could be converted to a holding tank. The fuel tank holds 30 gallons. The quarter berth has been converted to an aft-facing navigation station with a slide-out bay for instruments, a chart drawer (quarter fold) and ample bookshelves. This serves as a desk in port. Electronics include fixed VHF and depthsounder plus a handheld GPS and VHF. The cabinetry has been extensively upgraded, including a bottle locker with stained glass doors, illuminated by a deck prism. The main cabin lighting is Alpenglow fluorescent units. The interior upholstery was replaced a few years ago using automotive fabric. The forward bunks are latex foam, the rest polyurethane. There is a 12' Tinker inflatable dinghy with a sailing rig which is in poor condition but could probably be used as a tender with some patching. SpecificationsDescriptions, basic information, dimensions & weight, tank capacities, accommodations. Forward is a V-berth with insert and enclosed shelves alongside hanging locker, drawers and storage compartments. Aft to starboard is a large hanging locker. Aft to port is a head with shower. The head is plumbed to a Lectra-San system. Next aft are a fold down dining table, settees to port and stbd with storage under behind and above to include a TV locker. The port settee converts to a double berth. Aft of the main salon is a nav station to port and galley to stbd. |

Alberg 37 Pros and Cons?I came across an older Alberg 37, interested, no sails listed, has a number of things I like, and some questions, says to being redone, wont know unless/until I call, pros and cons on her ? My interest would be for a cruising live aboard. Do you post a thread about every boat you look at??? You've posted on Endeavors, a Pearson 39' CB, a couple of glass-hulled wooden boats, and had a thread asking about production bluew water boats... Have you actually stepped aboard any of these boats, or are you just looking at their specifications?? If you haven't stepped aboard any of them, you might want to step aboard a few and get an idea of whether you like the boat or not. Any boat you don't like off the boat...is probably one that you shouldn't even be asking about. As for living aboard... I am not familiar with the Alberg 37 but do know of at least two families that liveaboard on Alberg 30s., which I am fairly familiar with... so I don't see that being a big problem. You might want to read this , this , and this . C'mon, SD, lighten up a little. Jake, we had an A37 in a neighbouring slip some years ago, the owner was very fond of her. His was a sloop, they were also offered as a yawl, I believe. Like all Albergs they have nice lines and full underbodies. Relatively narrow, they will have less liveaboard space than more current designs. The major negative for these types of boats is that they will be nearly impossible to back up in a straight line, and close quarters maneouvering will be difficult. Whether this is a big factor will depend on your moorage situation and your intended usage. Alberg 37 Hey SD good to have you here, if I lose track of which ones I consider I can just check with you. To answer your question, yes, some, others are about half a continent away, it seems logical, even reasonable to ask on an open forum for input on them. I have been researching them as I go along, and develop perceptions on them, I'd rather not just go with that and the brokers statements for my only input. Before I do any surveys I will be first ruling out any that wont work for me, and once I have some reasonable sounding ones I'll go look at them. Seems reasonable to me. As all are a day or mores driving minimum it seems logical to get all the input that I can before making a several days trip. This IS an open forum isnt it ? It IS about buying a boat isnt it ? Anyone who doesnt want to respond has no requirement to. Or did I miss something here ? Anyhow, thanks for your input, it is appreciated. It really is. SD those first two links I had, the 3rd one is the kind of stuff I am looking for, I have gotten some owner input: as the zincs being very dificult to reach, preferring to cruise on a 20 degree heel, etc, trying to build up more, once I buy its not going to be repeated for a long time, there is several things on that 3rd link that are seriously what I want/need. Thanks. Fwiw, my previous inquiries and the responses have helped me to rule out a number of boats that I wouldnt have been happy with. I understand what you're saying, long before I sign on the dotted line I will sail on it and her close relatives, right now I am more looking for possibilities but mostly ruling out those that wont work, a lot of my time coming up this spring/summer is going to be sailing on the several makes I finally get narrowed down to. I have read a lot of good things on the albergs, and their close relatives, one disadvantage that I have is being far inland from the coasts although some are here on the Great Lakes, but having a blue water boat on the GLs is a bit like having a ferrari running around the town square. I have ruled out several makes just on comments offered here, and several others from things brought up in some of the surveying/inspecting and cruising books I've gotten, its a slow process. I am on several owners lists now, and gradually getting information there, frankly the alberg sounds the best so far although there are a couple interesting pearsons, and one old boat thats a one off I think that keeps drawing me back to her. We shall see what will be. My goal is a good boat for cruising that can get me around the Caribbean and maybe down to the Galapagoes. Quite a few of the Pearsons are actually Alberg designs...so I'm not particularly surprised that you are looking at a few of them. A blue water boat isn't completely out of place on the Great Lakes, especially if you've seen the weather they can throw at you in November or so. Faster's point about the Alberg full-keel designs being fairly uncooperative when it comes to reverse gear is very much spot on. It is possible, but it takes a fair amount of practice. Alberg 37s are classic sailing vessels. A little narrow, nice ends and sheer, easy motion at sea, and so forth. As has been said, you must find out if it meets your needs. Probably not an all-out racer. As far as backing under power, even large single screw ships don't back straight. In most cases, turning while backing must be done by briefly hitting the rudder with propwash (a pulse of forward gear.) It takes patience and practice but it can be done. If I were looking for a classic to rebuild from the keel up the A37 you be high on the list but I (meaning me..) would not take it for extended cruising tho many, many have ..

Does anyone here know the berth lengths on the Alberg 37 Mark 1 or MK I. My wife and I are in the market for one. We are both tall at 5'10" and 6' respectively. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Cheers. The Alberg 37's were built with quite a few different layouts. The layout shown on SailBoatData has approximately a 6'-0" length to the forward berth (as measured from the center of the head of mattress at the bulkhead to the center of the mattress at the foot at the bulkhead. The other issue with that layout is that the forward berth has been pushed very far into the bow if the boat so there is very little width at the foot end of the bunk (less than 2 feet). In other words, due to the short length of the berth and the narrow width, you are more likely to be kicking each other during the night. When I was designing boats, the normal convention is that the berth centerline (measured as above) should be 6'-8" and the width at the foot room should be 15" for each berth (i.e. 2'-6" width at the foot). Carl Alberg tended to draw 'apple cheek' bows (full and rounded bows). While this really hurt motion and performance, it did result in a little more shoulder room in the vee-berth than some of his contemporaries.

I will note again that there are some pretty big variations in the interior layouts on the Alberg 37. For example; -Some had enclosed heads, and on others the head was across the passageway. - Some had a U-shaped galley to port, some had a straight galley on the starboard side, and some had an L-shaped galley on starboard that crossed under the bridge deck and across the companionway. -Some had a hanging locker/bureau in the forward cabin on port and starboard aft of the Vee berth, and some only had one hanging locker/bureau on port and still others had neither of those but a locker in the passage across from the head. In other words, The boat that you are looking at may have a different layout than the one shown on SailboatData. . I will also mention how I came up with that lengt5h of the berth. I dropped the image from Sailboatdata into my drafting program, blew it up to scale, and took a quick measurement. That is should produce a reasonably accurate measurement but not perfect.

Ownership history: I purchased hull #210 in 2013 from Bayfield Ontario. Then the boat was named Time Passage. The boat had not left the Great Lakes, which was evident in its pristine condition. The bronze fittings had no signs of oxidisation at all. I hauled the boat to install its inaugural anodes. From 2013 to 2017 I sailed Henry single handed from Bayfield to La Paz, Mexico via the Panama Canal. Henry has been based in La Paz, Mexico since 2017. In 2019 I emptied the entire boat and stripped all hardware in preparation for interior and exterior paint works, which are now complete. All hardware and fittings have been installed and the remaining items - e.g. Monitor windvane, cushions, sails, solar panels - will stay in my apartment to avoid excessive exposure to sun and general weather conditions. The boat is hauled out of the water at Atalanta boat yard, with heavy duty sun shades for protection from the sun. A local guy washes the boat and airs it out once per month when I’m away for work. Engine is started regularly with anticorrosive coolant flushing. Includes a vw beetle in matching colors. Equipment: General Description and Inventory Engine: Reportedly rebuilt in 2002. Kept in fresh water until June 2013. 6months in the fresh water of Rio Dulce Guatemala and again in Lake Gatun Panama. New Volvo shaft coupling 2011.

Atlantic pilot and Admiralty tide tables and GMDSS manual. World atlas for inspiration. Please enquire for more info. Rig and SailsAuxilary power, accomodations, calculations. The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more. Classic hull speed formula: Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL Sail Area / Displacement RatioA measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more. SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3 - SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
- D : Displacement in pounds.
Ballast / Displacement RatioA measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize. Ballast / Displacement * 100 Displacement / Length RatioA measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more. D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³ - D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
Comfort RatioThis ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more. Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 ) - D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
- LOA: Length overall in feet
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
Capsize Screening FormulaThis formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more. CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64) The shapely Alberg 37, the bigger sister of the popular Alberg 30 and 35 , was penned in the mid-1960s by Swedish-born Carl Alberg (1900-1986) for Kurt Hansen’s Whitby Boat Works in Canada. Originally designed as a racer cruiser, the Alberg 37 is better known today as a medium-heavy displacement bluewater capable cruiser. She’s strong, seaworthy, and best of all very affordable. Introduced in 1967, the boat came in sloop and yawl options and was popular enough to enjoy an update to a MkII model which primarily improved the interior layout and streamlined production. A total of 248 boats were built before the recession of 1987 reduced customer demand leading to the cease of production in 1988. Today the Alberg 37 has many fans and an avid following from owner communities, a few boats have circumnavigated. ConfigurationAt a glance, the Alberg 37 is unmistakably a classic yacht of the 1960s, drawing much influence from Scandinavian folkboats. There’s long overhangs, low freeboard, and soft sheerline. Below the waterline is a cutaway full keel, with a large raked rudder hung from the trailing edge of the keel. All very standard stuff for Alberg designs. The beam is incredibly narrow beam at 10 feet 2 inches and with slack bilges the hull does not contribute much form stability. Indeed the Alberg 37 is initially quite a tender boat, this helps her extend her waterline when she heeled to windward or reaching. ConstructionWhitby Boat Works had a reputation for building strong boats and Alberg 37s have proven themselves overtime. A 1977 hull ( Good News ), for example, was beached in a hurricane suffering only minor scratches. Paul Howard recalls a story in Canadian Yachting Magazine of a single hander’s 37 surviving three days of pounding on a reef in the South Pacific before escaping by jettisoning his supplies. He then sailed 2,000 miles before repairs. The hulls are of solid fiberglass up to an inch think at the bilge. Half of the boats had balsa coring amidships just up from the turn of the bilge as a measure to provide extra support when the boat rested on a cradle over the off-season (remembering the original design as a racer/cruiser). The fiberglass work was well executed and consistent, and though the fiberglass was resin rich by modern standards, Whitby Boat Works hull scantlings were among the heaviest in the industry. The deck was balsa cored, and joined to the hull via an inward flange. The ballast is lead and is encapsulated inside the keel cavity. MkI and MkIIThe MkII model in 1971 saw a change of construction with the introduction of a fiberglass interior pan, which streamlined production, aided hull stiffness, though sacrificing hull accessibility. The interior was improved with better use of interior space in the form of a larger head and galley, more storage and longer berths. The original teak toe rail was replaced by a fiberglass one change, a dodger splash guard was added and the cabin sported longer port lights which is the easiest way to spot a MkII model. Interior LayoutThe Alberg 37’s narrow beam results in a small interior by modern standards, but the boat is fully functional for bluewater sailing and many cruisers have lived aboard for extended time. The standard layout include v-berths forward, followed by opposite facing head and hanging locker. In the saloon there’s an L-shaped settee to port and a straight settee opposite. There’s plenty of storage with numerous drawers and lockers. Further aft is the galley to starboard which has a three burner stove, an oven and icebox and a quarter-berth/chart table combo to port. A few MkI boats have a midships galley which makes room for twin sea-going quarter-berths aft. The Alberg 37 is best in heavy seas, but in light winds and well trimmed sails she can maintain 6 knots. The boat is well balanced, to the point where the helm can be left minutes at a time without a self steering unit. She is not very close winded and is relatively tender, though the extra heeling helps her extend her waterline length and therefore hull speed. There is also a tendency to hobby horse. The Alberg 37 has an easy motion through the water, sea kindliness pays important dividends in offshore work where reducing fatigue is key to safe passages. Buyers NotesMost boats were delivered with either the 23hp Volvo MD2D or the 27hp MD11C which are underpowered, a 40hp Westerbeke 4-107 was an option, this is the one to go for (or similar power rating if it’s been repowered). As with any boat of this ages, look over the rigging, wiring and plumbing, and check for softness in deck, sure signs of water damage to the balsa coring. Owners report the original wiring was not well thought out and needs reworking or updating. Poor quality seacocks are another comment, it’s worth replacing them if bluewater work is on the agenda. The interior of MkII models have more space and storage, a vital asset in any bluewater boat, but equally important is access to all areas of the boat for maintenance, and owners of MkI models without the interior pan love this, especially access to the deck fittings.
