This 2005 Alerion Express 28 is a one-owner, freshwater vessel that has been used lightly for day-sailing and Club Racing. Always winter stored indoors, kept on a mooring during the short Northern Michigan summers, and professionally maintained. The trend toward elegant day sailors was pioneered by the notable beauty of this Carl Schumacher design, which sailors instinctively pause to admire. The quality produced by Pearson Composites, utilizing the SCRIMP system of resin infusion by vacuum. The Alerion 28 delivers outstanding performance under sail, and is specifically designed to be easily single-handed or sailed with minimal crew. A fin keel and spade rudder provide exceptional maneuverability and stability. A Volvo Diesel MD2010 with Sail Drive adds compact and reliable power. This beautifully balanced boat sets the standard for the ideal day sailor or in-shore Club Racer. She truly is the most beautiful girl at the dance...
