experience, analysis, opinion: 26ft Albin

We''re trying to buy our first sailboat. We heard of a 26'' Albin for sale and thought it would be the Peter Norlin design, ''Cirrus''. In fact, it is an entirely different design by Rolf Magnusson - the Albin 79. I''ve not found much about this boat, especially comments about sailing characteristics and performance. Maybe those of you with more experience and a talent for interpreting "the numbers" can offer some insight...opinion. L.O.A. 7.88 m L.W.L. 6.10 m Width 2.67 m Draft 1.45 m Displ 2,150 kg Keel Fin Draft 1.45 m Ballast 750 kg Keel % 34.8 % Rig Masthead Sail 27.2 m2 Jib 8 m2 Genoa 24 m2 Gen II 18 m2 Produced 1974-77 Number built 250 "The Albin 26 or Albin 79, in metres, was built as the smaller sister to the much better known Ballad and bears quite a family resemblance. Originally designed as an offshore cruiser/racer to the 1/4 ton rating she has a good turn of speed and excellent handling. She has some very innovative features for a boat of her era. Her diesel engine is situated forward of the moulded keel, under the fore peak berths. Her open plan saloon is similar to many of the latest designs in yachts of this size, and the heads compartment, in the starboard quarter, was years ahead of it’s time." So, what about the diesel location? And, what are the pluses & minuses of having been designed to the 1/4 ton rating? Photos: http://www.sailguide.com/Bilder/Albin_79bild.htm http://www.compasssecurities.com/boat/fiddlers_stands.jpg The prop shaft exits the hull just behind the aft edge of the keel. http://www.compasssecurities.com/boat/fiddlers_stands2.jpg The diesel is located in the compartment right in front of the V-berth http://www.compasssecurities.com/boat/interiorfwd2.jpg
W: That is a surprise. I too would have immediately assumed that size Albin was the Cirrus. The first question I would want answered is where was she built? After the Cirrus (and Ballad, Vega and one other model), they transitioned to Taiwan. I''m assuming this model was built in Sweden given the design and size...but would want it confirmed. Yes, forward of the CLR is a strange place for an engine, isn''t it. Still, how much stuff will you cram into the lockers back aft? And how is access? I''m not sure the position per se is an issue. Jack
Jack, Thanks for your comments. We''ve decided to keep looking. Since we''re intending on keeping this first boat for just a few seasons - developing skills & experience - we think it would be smarter to buy a boat that is better known/less unusual so selling it will be easier. W&B
I purchased an Albin 79 hull # 9 built in 1974 , she has proven herself to be a rugged seaworthy vessel . She requires a large foresail in light air to keep up with light new boats but will go up against anything comparable in heavy weather and performs exceptional when close hauled , often we break through 6 knots , we rarely need to reef the main and run a 130 Genoa most of the time , 170 in light air and asymmetrical spinnaker as required . I repowered it with yanmar 2YM 15 and cruise at 5,3 knots .I hope to keep this boat for another 20 years , it may outlast me. Jim Petrus.
I looked at that model before I bought my Cirrus 7.8. The boat was beautifully built but I did not like the idea of having the engine under the head of the V berth. I imagined it would always smell while I was trying to sleep. I wasn't wild about the enclosed head either. That is expensive real estate and I preferred the way it was handled on the Norlin 7.8.

Albin Express
Albin Express is a 25 ′ 5 ″ / 7.8 m monohull sailboat designed by Peter Norlin and built by Albin Marine between 1978 and 1985.
Rig and Sails
Auxilary 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 Ratio
A 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 Ratio
A 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 Ratio
A 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 Ratio
This 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 Formula
This 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)

3 people are dead, several missing after migrant boat runs into trouble off southeastern Spain
MADRID — A boat carrying a group of migrants ran into trouble off the coast of southeastern Spain killing at least three people and several others were believed missing, authorities said Friday.
Spain’s Maritime Rescue Service said in a statement that two survivors and three bodies were found on a partially sunken boat off the coast near the town of Motril. The two survivors said the boat had been carrying 12 people when it set sail from Algeria six days ago, leading authorities to suspect seven others may have fallen into the sea.
The two survivors and three bodies were taken by helicopter to the mainland.
Tens of thousands of migrants from sub-Saharan countries fleeing poverty, conflict and instability in West Africa try to reach Spain each year in large open boats. Most go to the Canary Islands in the Atlantic , while others from Morocco , Algeria and Middle Eastern countries try to cross the Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean to mainland Spain. Several thousand die making the hazardous journey.
The Interior Ministry says 14, 405 migrants arrived in Spain by boat between Jan. 1 and Mar. 15, up from 3,528 in the same period last year. The vast majority arrived on the Canary Island route.

It takes into consideration "reported" sail area, displacement and length at waterline. The higher the number the faster speed prediction for the boat. A cat with a number 0.6 is likely to sail 6kts in 10kts wind, a cat with a number of 0.7 is likely to sail at 7kts in 10kts wind. KSP = (Lwl*SA÷D)^0.5*0.5
