28' Alerion Express 28 '11 "Felicity"
The Alerion Express 28 has consistently been recognized as one of the prettiest boats on the water. The traditional look above the waterline sports a thoroughly modern underwater shape that simply adds to her allure.
This amazing daysailer/weekender sails like a dream. The Alerion Express 28 is a great design from the very accomplished naval architect, Carl Schumacher. She has traditional lines above the waterline, with a modern underbody and sail plan. The Hoyt jib boom makes her extremely easy to sail short-handed coupled with a large and roomy cockpit for either a single-hander or a family.
With over 450 AE28�s worldwide, this daysailer is by far the most popular of all the modern daysailers. With her inception in the mid 90�s the AE28 was the first model to start this trend.
FELICITY has been well maintained and shows like new. Her diesel has less than 100 hours on her. But she has been well cared for by both of her owners.
