This 1980 Alden 44 is Great For
For sale: 1980 44’ Alden Cutter, hull number 16 of 40. “VI”
“The Alden 44 was designed in 1977 and has been turning heads ever since. This capable offshore racer-cruiser has made countless passages and won its fair share of hardware on the racecourse in its day. Alden design and high-quality construction methods have made the 44 an enduring boat on the used-boat market.
Classic, sleek and beautiful are words typically heard when admirers first encounter the Alden 44. This yacht exudes power and style with a cutter rig, long graceful sheer, teak decks and quality hardware. The open cockpit is roomy enough for an intimate cocktail party of six during calm weather but designed to keep sailors warm and dry in a pounding sea.
For traditionalists, the Alden 44 is a dream yacht, well-proportioned overall, slender at the beam, sturdily built, big enough to sleep eight, seaworthy and especially pretty.” -Sailing Magazine
