Albin 78 for Sale

Due to a larger boat, it is now time to sell our Albin 78, which we have owned since 2020. It is a spacious and easy-to-sail boat that we have often taken out with five adults. Compared to boats from the same era, such as Maxi 77 and IF, it is perceived as more modern and sails very nicely in the archipelago and on cruises.

We have continuously maintained and invested in updates and amenities. Our model also has self-tacking jib, ST winches, and an extended mainsheet track for extra smooth handling and trimming options. The spacious cockpit is teak-clad, which adds to the comfort.

The boat is in good condition and well-equipped with a 65-liter fresh water tank, fresh and comfortable cushions, more storage along the hull sides than standard. Plenty of electricity with dual batteries, dual modern solar panels, and energy-efficient refrigerator.
