This is an amazing yacht! Like me we are both east coast transplants to the SFO bay area. She sailed for a good period of time bay racing and lightly used but well taken care of. I found her on YW just after I started my boat search...and just after the owner shipped her to the east coast to be sold. (according to the broker I talked to the owner thought Aldens are better known on east coast and would sell faster there, ugh)...I would have bought her if she had stayed on the west coast but the cost of shipping her back to the west coast etc, forced me to move on. Absolutely splendid craftsmanship, maintenance/care on this Alden. And at this very attractive price she will move quickly. I really like this boat and I'm very happy to see that Captain Q and Randy share the feeling. You guys are one of the best sailing channels on YT, keep it going! Cheers.

Great Review. The dorade box with the two fittings near the dodger are usually water valves so you can hook up to city water. I own Hull #1 and it is nearly identical to this boat. My aft cabin is set up a bit different, but other than that, they are twins. I am currently doing a complete restoration on mine and currently re-coring the decks. I hope mine looks as good as Kismet in the near future.

Although I don’t think you mentioned a Hinckley in this video, you do many times. You compare features and designs to Hinkley. Tell me your reasons for this. I don’t own a boat nor do I sail, but you two have inspired me and now I am looking.
@YachtHunters
3 жыл бұрын
Hi John, Hinckley has a well-earned reputation as one of the premier designers and manufacturers of boats since its inception in 1928. They are akin to what Mercedes-Benz is of car makers - uncompromising on design, durability, safety, sailability(which may not actually be a word), and also innovation. They were among the first leaders to move to fiberglass construction in the 1950s... proving that they were always prepared to evolve the designs if it meant building a better boat. Prices on used Hinckleys are often far above other boats of similar size and age, reflecting how well-appreciated they are by buyers. We use it as a benchmark for other manufacturers and designers since they are so darn good.... you can see the Hinckley design influence on other similar boats of the day - this Alden 44, the Ted Hood 46 we reviewed in episode #29.... so you'll hear us mention them a lot as they essentially set the standard back in the day. Hope this helps!
