Alpa 38 gebraucht

Classic lines meet proven engineering in this 1978 Alpa 38, a ketch-rigged vessel designed by the renowned firm Sparkman & Stephens. Measuring 11.5 meters in length with a 3.41-meter beam, this fiberglass sailboat is recognized for its robust build and reliable performance in varying sea conditions. Mechanical reliability is a standout feature of this vessel, which underwent a major engine upgrade in 2017. The current Beta Marine 50 HP engine has recorded only 500 hours of operation. Maintenance has been a priority for the current owner, who has held the vessel for the past 25 years. Recent technical updates include new rigging as of 2023, a new jib installed in 2024, and a life raft serviced in 2022. The interior layout accommodates up to 10 people and includes 2 cabins and 2 baths, making it suitable for extended coastal cruising. The sail inventory is extensive, featuring a mainsail at 50% capacity, a 2024 jib, various light and normal wind jibs, and a gennaker. This Alpa 38 is located in Italy and is offered with VAT paid. Please note that the asking price has been recently reduced, providing an opportunity for prospective buyers interested in a classic, well-maintained ketch. The boat is currently registered under a Polish flag and has been owned by only three parties since new.
