This past Friday we posted an article about the Alpa A27, design #2241. This model followed directly on the heels of the A27 and would be the final model designed for Alpa Yachts of Cremona, Italy as well as the final model produced by Alpa. It was introduced in 1977, the final year of yacht production for the company.
Here are the plans.
Principal Dimensions
LOA 33'-1"
LWL 27'-5"
Beam 10'-6"
Draft 5'-9"
Displacement 11,464 lbs
Ballast 4,848 lbs
Sail Area 699 sq ft
I like the look of this boat. Its accommodation layout looks remarkably roomy for a 32ft boat, yet practical for seagoing. There seems to be a lot of sail area for its displacement and lwl. It looks like a more compact version of a Swan 38, which is probably my favourite of all cruiser/racers.
